How to use Eikon API to retrieve the peers list

byan · June 2021

Hi Team,

I want to find out if we can use the API to pull in a list of names who would be considered a peer group for a stock.

Eg) See peers list circled in the lower right for the company Core Laboratories (CLB).

Thanks,

Bingsen

@byan Its really easy please try the following:

ric = 'CLB'
peers, err = ek.get_data([ric,"Peers("+ric+")"],['CF_CLOSE','CF_NAME'])
peers

Can we add multiple codes in one go?

ric = 'MSFT.O';'VOD.L';'BARC.L'

peers, err = ek.get_data([ric,"Peers("+ric+")"],['CF_CLOSE','CF_NAME'])

peers

I did try this, however not sure if its showing for all the 3 companies Peers.
