I recently learned investments have a property called factor. This is used for distinguishing between pounds and pence for investments denominated in GBP for example. Please can you tell me how I can call the factor for a RIC on a date using the API - what is the name of the variable I have to call (for example to get price I call TR.BidPrice)? I still use the eikon python package for context.

The best resource for content questions is the Helpdesk support team, which can be reached by submitting queries through LSEG Support. The support team will either have the required content expertise ready available or can reach out to relevant content experts to get the answer for you.

You need to ask for the Excel formula, such as =RDP.Data, that can be used to retrieve the required data. Otherwise, you can use the Data Item Browser tool to search for fields and parameters.

Then, we can help you converting that formula to Python code.
