    If you're asking about real-time data interface, you can find the list of fields available for a given RIC using a Quote app in Eikon. Open a new Quote app, enter the RIC, then right click within the app and select Template - Display All Fields (or use the equivalent command in the app toolbar). This will give you a raw view of the real-time data record, which is a vector of field name/value pairs.
    If you're asking about timeseries interface, you can discover the metadata for a given RIC using Formula Builder wizard in Eikon Excel. Or you can discover it using the API. See "Views and intervals" section in this tutorial.

    For realtime data subscription, you can use "Quote" object on Eikon Desktop to see all available fields on a specific RIC.
