For static datatypes please use following request:

mydsws <- dsws$new()

myData <-
mydsws$snapshotRequest(instrument = c("U:F","U:BA"),

datatype = c("NAME","ISIN","ISINID"),

requestDate = "2019-01-10")

Here are R codes (using RDatastream library):
> ds(user, stk,c("ISIN","ISINID"), date = "2019-01-10" )
StatusType    "Failure"                                          
StatusMessage "$$"ER", E100, INVALID CODE OR EXPRESSION ENTERED, U:IBM(ISINID)"

> ds(user, stk,c("P","VO"), date = "2019-01-10" )
StatusType    "Connected"              
StatusCode    "0"    


As seen, for same sec request: static data resulted failure, while time series worked!
