Hi @tutan,
Have you had a look at the LSEG Developer Portal's Datastream page? In particular, the Documentation tab? I believe that the information you are after might be found there.
Else, I had a look into the Datastream Navigator to find the mnemonic that may link to S&P 500, and found "LS&PCOMP". Then reading the documentation, it looks like you need "|L" at the end of the mnemonic to get the constituent list:import DatastreamPy as ds
# We can use our LSEG's Datastream API keys that allows us to be identified by Refinitiv's back-end services and enables us to request (and fetch) data: Credentials are placed in a text file so that it may be used in this code without showing it itself.
ds_username = open("Datastream_username.txt", "r")
ds_password = open("Datastream_password.txt", "r")
ds = ds.DataClient(
config=None,
username=str(ds_username.read()),
password=str(ds_password.read()),
proxies=None,
sslVerify=None,
sslCert=None)
# It is best to close the files we opened in order to make sure that we don't stop any other services/programs from accessing them if they need to.
ds_username.close()
ds_password.close()
# # Alternatively one can use the following:
# import getpass
# dsusername = input()
# dspassword = getpass.getpass()
# ds = dsws.Datastream(username = dsusername, password = dspassword)
ds.get_data(tickers='LS&PCOMP|L', fields =["MNEM"], kind=0)
Note that my credentials are placed in a text file so that it may be used in this code without showing it itself:df_of_mnemonic = ds.get_data(tickers='LS&PCOMP|L', fields =["MNEM"], kind=0)
df_list = df_of_mnemonic.Value.to_list()
print(df_list)ds.get_data(tickers=",".join(df_list[0:10]), fields =["P"], kind=0)
I'm not sure what you mean by "financial indicators"; do you have a field name in Datastream that refers to it?
