News data for academic research

Hello, I am doing research for a PhD and I am trying to get news headlines data for certain keywords over a 5 year span using Workspace's APIs via Jupyter notebook. Are there restrictions on the amount of historical news data available via the Eikon Data API and the EDP API, even with an academic account? I have seen it mentioned history is only available for 15 months, but I thought this would be different for an academic account, if not are there any alternatives products/methods available under an academic license? Thanks, Hugh

Thank you for reaching out to us.
The limitations should be the same for all users. You can test this by yourself by requesting 5 year-ago news.
I tested this with the LSEG Data Library for Python. The oldest news I can get is from Sep 2023.
df = ld.news.get_headlines( "R:IBM.N", start="2000-08-01T00:00:00", end="2024-10-03T00:00:00", count=100, order_by=ld.news.SortOrder.old_to_new) df
Regarding other products, you may need to contact your university's administrators to verify if you can access other products. Moreover, the administrators can contact LSEG account team or Sales team to get information about products that can provide historical news.
