EikonError: Error code 400 | Backend error. 400 Bad Request.

Huma

The python Data API is repeated erroring out of eikon.get_data requests and giving EikonError: Error code 400 | Backend error. 400 Bad Request. Multiple attempts will yield a result but the issue continues to persist making it impossible to do anything but manualy keep resending. Please escalate this to the API team as it is performance issue that has just started and needs to be fixed.

Hi @Huma ,

I would recommend you look at the latest and strategic LSEG Data Library for Python more detail can be found in article Essential Guide to the Data Libraries - Generations of Python library (EDAPI, RDP, RD, LD) | Devportal

It should have much-improved error/session handling than the Eikon Data API.

Regarding this issue, it'd be nice if we could see the log of an error for an investigation, could you please follow the instruction in article Eikon Data API and Refinitiv Data Library - Troubleshooting to see the log and paste it here.
