Retrieving Bond Rating Data Based on Tickers

leckieje

I'm trying to retrieve the most recent bond ratings from Moody's, S&P, and Fitch from a list of tickers.

I convert the list of tickers to both ISIN and RICs with this code that seems to work:

I tried throwing the whole list of codes as either RICa rics = codes['RIC'].tolist() or ISIN as isin = codes['IssueISIN'].tolist() but got an exception that it was "Unable to resolve all requested identifiers". So I tried looping through each code individually but I'm still getting the same exception.

Using the ISIN, the code looks like this:

Any ideas? Same results with RICs. Is the conversion off? Am I requesting the ratings incorrectly? At a loss here. Thanks.

Thank you for reaching out to us.

I tested some tickers and found that symbol_conversion can convert those tickers to the following RICs and ISINs.

However, the API can't retrieve the TR.GR.Rating values of those RICs and ISINs.

This could be a content issue. You need to contact the helpdesk team to verify those RICs or ISINs and the TR.GR.Rating fields.
