RICs return null datasets

I am trying the get the Jumbos of a few markets. The corresponding RICs are given below:

LCO, LCC, LRC

The following Jumbo RICs are consistently returning null values in the dataset:

['LCOF8-H8^1' ,'LCOG8-J8^1' ,'LCOJ8-M8^1', 'LCOM8-Q8^1', 'LCON8-U8^1', 'LCOQ8-V8^1', 'LCOU8-X8^1', 'LCOV8-Z8^1' ,'LCOX8-F9^1' ,'LCOZ8-G9^1', 'LCOF9-H9^1', 'LCOG9-J9^1' ,'LCOH9-K9^1', 'LCOJ9-M9^1', 'LCOK9-N9^1', 'LCOM9-Q9^1', 'LCON9-U9^1']

['LCCH5-K5^1', 'LCCK5-N5^1', 'LCCN5-U5^1', 'LCCU5-Z5^1', 'LCCZ5-H6^1', 'LCCH6-K6^1', 'LCCK6-N6^1' ,'LCCN6-U6^1']

['LRCF5-H5^1', 'LRCH5-K5^1', 'LRCK5-N5^1' ,'LRCN5-U5^1' ,'LRCU5-X5^1', 'LRCX5-F6^1' ,'LRCF6-H6^1' ,'LRCH6-K6^1', 'LRCK6-N6^1', 'LRCN6-U6^1']

I am trying to using the eikon's python API using the following code:

e.get_timeseries(jumbo_rics, start_date='2015-1-1')

I am able to pull the other Jumbos during 2015-20 duration

Hi @varun.divakar

I would not be able to give you the answer on the content availability for either get_data or get_timeseries

But from my observation by using the API, I could see that some instrument has fewer data compared to others.

You will need to contact Refinitiv Content Helpdesk to clarify on this content topic.

Hi @varun.divakar

I checked a few instruments and they do not have the data for the whole period you requested via API.

Also, please review API limitation guideline at https://developers.refinitiv.com/en/api-catalog/eikon/eikon-data-api/documentation

For timeseries interday, you could retrieve up to 3000 records per single API call.

Hi,

I have investigated this further, and I think the data is missing. I have attached screenshots of the code for only 1 jumbo here below, so there is no chance of hitting the 3000 limitation you have mentioned. This time I have run the code in Reuters Code Creator. Please see that using the both get_data and get_timeseries gives different results. And neither of them have data as such.

Hi @varun.divakar

Thanks for your additional information.

Now I understand that you are trying to compare the data between get_data() with TR.<xxx>PRICE fields and get_timeseries().

I believe that this instrument code does not carry the data on TR.<xxx>PRICE fields.

I am not comparing the two functions. I am showing with example that you can't get data using either of the two available functions. What I am asking you is for a workaround to get the data for this RIC. If the data is not available then please let me know.
