I need to receive the RATMON screening with the Python API. Is there a possibility to do so?

Not exactly, in RATMON, we get a list of the updates from the ratings agencies for the time we choose. There we receive the changes for all firms, not just the universe we choose as in the previous thread (such as S&P500). Is there any way of receiving exactly the stream from RATMON?

The current Eikon Python API does not contain functions that allow for the replication of the RATMON window in Python.

However, this data is available in downloadable format via the Excel download button in RATMON.

A workaround could involve creating a Python bot along with Windows Task Scheduler to automate your machine to go on RATMON through Refinitiv's Workspace and download the relevant information. You may then import this data on Python from the produced Excel workbook.
