How to extract topics of news headline using API?

Rokas

I managed to retrieve topic codes (e.g. "A:2", "G:1F"). How to convert them to their corresponding topic names in the Workspace app (e.g. TOPNWS, GFIN)?

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Please refer to the Exploring News Metadata - with Refinitiv Data Platform and Python article.

I can use the LSEG Data Library for Python to access the /data/news/v1/metadata/ endpoint through the Workspace desktop session by using the endpoint interface. The code looks like this:

news_meta_url = '/data/news/v1/metadata/A:2'
request_definition = ld.delivery.endpoint_request.Definition(
    url = news_meta_url,
    method = ld.delivery.endpoint_request.RequestMethod.GET
)
response = request_definition.get_data()
response.data.raw

The endpoint example is available on GitHub.
