I need to retrieve the financial period end dates from the income statement using Python.

mahesh_m · 2025-04-16T13:06:58+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

My current code

workspace_df = ld.get_history(
universe=str(org_id),
fields=['TR.Revenue', 'TR.F.Source', 'TR.F.PeriodEndDate'],
start="2000-01-01",
end="2050-01-01"
)

However, this only returns annual period data. How can I modify the parameters to include quarterly period as well?"

Thanks @Jirapongse this is really helpful,

here

    parameters={'Period':'FQ0','FRQ':'FQ'}

I was able get the values from the DIB and update, but how did you come to know the key params like 'Period' and 'FRQ' from the DIB

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Is it this one?

 ld.get_history(
    universe="IBM.N",
    fields=['TR.Revenue', 'TR.F.Source', 'TR.F.PeriodEndDate'],
    start="2000-01-01",
    end="2050-01-01",
    parameters={'Period':'FQ0','FRQ':'FQ'}
    )

You use the Data Item Browser tool to list all available parameters.
