How to find RIC Refinitiv identifiers from eMAXX’s CINS identifiers for the same bond issue list?

How to link eMAXX (CINS) identifiers to their Refinitiv Workspace (RIC) identifiers?

For example, the CINS "N7280EA", which corresponds to the 9-digit CINS "N7280EAK6", exists in the Refinitiv Workspace database, and corresponds to the RIC NL030415957 (which I can check manually), but I cannot retrieve this information automatically.

It’s extremely embarrassing, because it has a very detailed price history, for example, that I can’t recover unless I check each of the 150,000 items on the list by hand.

    Hi @philippe.soleri

    The RDP (Refinitiv Data Platform) symbology endpoint (/discovery/symbology/v1/lookup) found within the API Playground provides a way to programmatically convert a CINS value to multiple RIC identifiers. For example:

    {
    "from": [
    {
    "identifierTypes": ["CinsNumber"],
    "values": ["N7280EAK6"]
    }
    ],
    "to": [
    {
    "identifierTypes": ["RIC"]
    }
    ],
    "type": "auto"
    }
