Regular Datastream can pull WC05350 for ISINs below but API fails and returns NA:IE00BY7QL619
US18482P1030
US1251411013
US0025353006Please help fix the issue
Hi,
Here we can see that you have used LATEST VALUE within your request. Therefore you will need to use LATESTDATE as the START Date within DSWS.
Best regards

@wasin.w
Regarding your question if the ISIN names are valid, I checked Eikon and it can read the ISINs just fine:
IE00BY7QL619 - Johnson Controls International PLCUS18482P1030 - Clearfield Inc
US1251411013 - Ceco Environmental Corp
US0025353006 - Aaron's Inc
Is there a way we can apply a fix on the Datastream API issue? Thanks!
Hello @AGB
I have contact Datastream team to verify this query.
Hi, This isn't a DSWS question. The ISIN's work fine. Please contact the helpdesk to identify why we do not have this Worldscope content for these ISINs.
Hi @James.Bright1
I am from the helpdesk. There is Worldscope content for these ISINs and it works fine via normal Datastream product. Here's the formula and result:
=DSGRID("IE00BY7QL619,US18482P1030,US1251411013,US0025353006","WC05350","Latest Value","","","ColHeader=true;DispSeriesDescription=true;DispDatatypeDescription=true","")
FISCAL PERIOD END DATE 30/09/2018
30/09/2018
31/12/2018
This proves the following:
1) There IS Worldscope content for the ISINs
2) The issue is with DSWS product not being able to pull up the content
Please help.
