Hello, I'm pulling down ask_yield and bid_yield via the API and I'm seeing different values in the API call result then what's shown in the Eikon UI.

Symbol: US927804FG41 For Bid Yield the UI is showing 2.8770 but the API result is 2.89
This is my API call: df = streaming_prices.get_snapshot( instruments = rics, fields = ['BID_YIELD', 'ASK_YIELD'] )

Can you please advise on the field/request needed to pull down 2.8770? I believe 2.8770 is RT_YIELD_1 is that field available in the get_snapshot request?

    Hi @mschweig

    The RIC code for 'US927804FG41' is '927804FG4='

    You can try this code to get the RIC code:

    df,e = ek.get_data('US927804FG41','TR.RIC')
    df


    On the Eikon Desktop, please launch a Quote application and open '927804FG4=' RIC code.

    Then click display all fields to see all the field names that can be used with streaming_prices.

    On the quote application, you can hover mouse pointer to see the field names.

    I believe in this case, you should use RT_YIELD_1 field.
