Rebranding impact for TREP service API / RFA

DavidTWLo

Dear sir,

Notice that there are some recent notifications about "Rebranding Thomson Reuters to Refinitiv" effective in 2021, which may affect the server name and port number for service connection.

Will this change also affect TREP service API / RFA.

Thank you for advise.

Hi @DavidTWLo

The RFA APIs need to connect to whatever server name and ports your internal MarketData team have configured.

If they change the server name or ports then you would need to amend your RFA config to use any such revised values.

I am not a TREP expert, however, I have not seen anything to suggest that port numbers will need to change - nor server names - unless your internal MarketData team decides to do so.

There may be some very minor change required to your RFA application - depending on which version you are using - RFA Java, C++ or .NET

Hi @DavidTWLo

We have a recording of the recent Customer Advisory Forum - where the various Refinitiv Product Teams went over what if any changes are required for the various rebranded products.

Hi @DavidTWLo

I just watched the above video and the sections that will probably be of most interest to you is

• about 20min in for the TREP stuff and
• about 43mins in for the API stuff.

Hope that helps.
