    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    If you are using the Workspace application, you can use the LSEG Data Library for Python to retrieve data.

    However, to retrieve, you need to know instruments (RICs, ISINs, etc.), fields, and parameters. For example:

    • The ld.get_data() method can be used to retrieve fundamental and pricing data (TR.xxx fields).
    • The ld.get_history() method can be used to retrieve historical data.
    • The ld.discovery.search() method can be used to search for instruments.

    The examples are available on GitHub. You can also use the Data Item Browser tool to search for fields and parameters.

    Otherwise, you can contact the helpdesk team directly via MyAccount to ask for instruments, fields, and parameters.

    Typically, the data retrieved from the library is similar to the data retrieved from the Eikon Excel or Workspace Excel. Therefore, you can also ask for the Excel formulas that can be used to retrieve the required data.

    Then, we can change the Excel formulas to Python code.
