Connection Actively Refused 127.0.0.1:36036

I am writing a simple `Hello World` connection to my Eikon instance, but it will return the error `Connection Actively Refused 127.0.0.1:36036` on every call. The code I am using is:

                IEikon eikon = Eikon.CreateDataAPI();
                eikon.SetAppKey("2cdaf3fe86axxxxxxa5c71b0273ec822a9beaeff");
                var response = eikon.GetNewsHeadlines(); // here it throws the Error

I have been also using this library as base structure for the examples: https://github.com/TR-API-Samples/Article.EikonDataAPI.DotNet.Library.

Anyone has any idea of why the connection is refused? Should I just go with the Python samples instead?

As far as I can see you're not a customer of Refinitiv and you're not subscribing to any Refinitiv products. You're a customer of the company named Metastock and you're subscribing to their product named Metastock Xenith, which includes an abridged retail version of Eikon. With this product you don't have access to Eikon APIs. If you'd like to use Eikon APIs you need to subscribe to to a variant of Eikon that includes Eikon Data APIs from Refinitiv.
