Cannot replicate Datascope output in TRTH API

jwaldron

I am trying to locate Comex Copper Option information (Ric root is HG). In Datascope, I get the following after searching broadly...

but when I try to follow the tutorial example, and submit the following request, it returns nothing..

requestUrl = "https://hosted.datascopeapi.reuters.com/RestApi/v1/Search/FuturesAndOptionsSearch"

requestHeaders={
    "Prefer":"respond-async",
    "Content-Type":"application/json", 
    "Authorization": "token " + token
}
requestBody={
  "SearchRequest": {
    "AssetStatus": "Active",
    "FileCodes": None,
    "CurrencyCodes": None,
    "ExchangeCodes": None,
    "FuturesAndOptionsType": "Options",
    "IdentifierType": "Ric",
    "Identifier": "HG*",
    "PreferredIdentifierType": "Ric",
    "UnderlyingRic": "HG"
  }
}

I have also supplied the exact identifer per the Datascope output, but also nothing.. I'm at a loss...

Thanks for any help.

Hi @jwaldron,

The search function in the Web UI you provided should be similar to the InstrumentSearch in DSS REST API. I am able to get the same results with the following request.

POST https://hosted.datascopeapi.reuters.com/RestApi/v1/Search/InstrumentSearch
{
  "SearchRequest": {
    "InstrumentTypeGroups": [
      "FuturesAndOptions"
    ],
    "IdentifierType": "Ric",
    "Identifier": "HG100*",
    "PreferredIdentifierType": "Ric"
  }
}

For FuturesAndOptionsSearch in REST API should be similar to Futures & Options Search in the following Web UI.
