I'm trying to get the dividend holdings with the get_data command, and I can't get out the history even using SDate and EDate, only returns current holdings

Could you detail your get_data request ?

Following example is working well :

>data, err = ek.get_data(["IBM", "GOOG.O", "MSFT.O"],
                        ["TR.Revenue", 'TR.TotalCurrentAssets',
                         "TR.GrossProfit", "TR.Employees"],
                        parameters={"SDate": 0,
                                    "EDate": -4,
                                    "Period": "FY0",
                                    "FRQ": "FY"})
>print(data)
