Python command discovery.convert_symbols fails for matured bonds

IoannisG

In Codebook, the Python commands:

import refinitiv.data as dl

dl.open_session()

ISINs=['DE000A11QTD2']

RICs=dl.discovery.convert_symbols(ISINs).loc[:,'RIC']

produce an error when an ISIN of an expired bond (e.g. DE000A11QTD2) is specified. However, it works for not expired bonds.

What can be done so that the command works with expired and non-expired bonds at the same time?

Thank you for reaching out to us.

You can try the Search API.

df = rd.discovery.search(
    view = rd.discovery.Views.SEARCH_ALL,
    filter = "IssueISIN eq 'DE000A11QTD2'",
    select = "DocumentTitle,IssueISIN,RIC",
    top = 100)
df

It returns:
