Please share the API to retrieve ISIN and LEI data elements using python or a SDK.
@MsJo
Thank you for reachign out to us.
Please provide more information and product regarding your usage.
If you are using Datascope Select, please refer to the tutorial page on the LSEG developer community website.
You can use the DSS REST API to search for instruments or convert symbologies.
Thank you so much for the response, What we want though is an API that we give a company name and give back the ISIN code for that company. Do we have such a API? The ones above assume that I already have ISIN code, just need to extend the data.
What products or APIs are you using?
Is it Datascope Select, Workspace, or Data Platform?
We are not currently extracting anything via api from refinitiv. Not sure if this the question you are asking
But we would like to, please help us on how to go about doing it.
I am not sure what LSEG products you are using.
I assume that you are using the Datascope Select product.
You can use the EntitySearch to search by a company name.
It will return organization IDs. Then, use the EquitySearch to search by an organization ID.
However, if you are using Workspace, or Data Platform, you can use the Search API, as mentioned in this article.
Hi,
We use the entity to search for the details.
Please share the full API links for authentication and the search API links.
We are using this on the desktop application as seen on the attachment, i am unsure what product this refers to. Your assistance here with the full API links would be appreciated.
Basically, I am asking for the auth API sample code and the Search sample code.
It is a LSEG Workspace desktop application.
You can use the LSEG Data Library for Python to retreive data via the desktop session. To connect to the desktop session, you need to create an application key. You can use the App Key Generator tool to create application keys.
Please refer to the QuickStart guide. The examples are on GitHub.
Set the app-key in the configuration file and change the default session to "desktop.workspace".
Good day,
I am able to connect to the api and get data, however it looks like the api that you shared on the screen is not on the api documentation store. The api library as well did not match what we found on github, looks like the documentation has not been updated for some time.
To speed things up, may i request that we setup a session with someone before the week ends in order to troubleshoot and get the correct api used.
I have attached screenshots
It looks like that you are using the search API on the Data Platform (https://api.refinitiv.com/discovery/search/v1/).
The document is on the API Playground. For more information, please contact your LSEG account team or Sales team directly.
Thank you for the response
Please share this specific API details, I was unable to find the EquitySearch API anywhere on the API Playground
This one is from the Datascope Select API.
You can refer to the DSS REST API Reference Tree.
I am unable to login with my LSEG details, please advise how do i sign in or at least register?
The Datascope account is not the same as the LSEG Data Platform account.
You can refer to the REST API Tutorial 12: Search for an Equity tutorial for more information regarding the DSS Search.
However, you may need to contact your LSEG account team or sales to confirm the products that you are using.
In this discussion, I mentioned two APIs.
