Can I ask the get_headlines for news suppose muti-tickers?

Divya_Tamatom

The query ask for searching the tickers: INTC, AMD. And the result only show the field versionCreated, headline, storyID, and sourceCode. There are 4 results, I can't know which news data is about INTC, which one is about AMD.

Can the result of "ld.news.get_headlines('(R:INTC.O OR R:AMD.O) AND Language:LEN AND Source:RTRS')" show each news ric?. It seems that only field "versionCreated", "headline", "storyID", "sourceCode" is given. I can't tell which news is talking about INTC or AMD from the result.

Hello @Divya_Tamatom

The ld.news.get_headlines() method is an Access Layer of the Data Library. It aims to provide simple data response for the clients.

The client can use the News class - Content Layer to get more dept data with a bit more code as follows:

import lseg.data as ld

from lseg.data.content import news

import json



ld.open_session(name='desktop.workspace')



response = news.headlines.Definition("(R:INTC.O OR R:AMD.O) AND Language:LEN AND Source:RTRS").get_data()

response.data.df



response.data.raw #<--- This one

With the response.data.df statement, it returns the selected data in Dataframe (the same as ld.news.get_headlines)

However, with the response.data.raw statement, it returns data in full JSON message (as is from the backend). This JSON message contains information of RIC code too.

Example JSON message:

{'data': [{'storyId': 'urn:newsml:reuters.com:20251111:nL6N3WN0ZN:7',

The client can find a full example on GitHub.
