    Hello @mae.diaz

    If the Python Library is the Refinitiv Data Library for Python, the library supports 3 sessions as follows:

    • Desktop Session: This one is similar to the Eikon Data API that mentioned by Raksina. It depends on which Eikon variant
    • Platform Session: This one consumes data from Refinitiv Data Platform (RDP). It does not require Eikon account, but it requires the RDP access credential/permission.
    • Deployed ADS: This one requires deployed RTDS.
