Multiple values returned from get_data

Hi, I've inherited some Python code that downloads debt seniority data.

I'm running a test on a single security:

df_pull_isin, error = ek.get_data(instruments = 'US404280EN53',
fields = [ 'TR.NISeniorSubordinatedDebtIndicator.date','TR.NISeniorSubordinatedDebtIndicator.value'])

returns output of the form

4414 US404280EN53 2024-01-23T00:00:00Z Senior
4415 US404280EN53 2024-01-24T00:00:00Z Senior
4416 US404280EN53 2024-02-27T00:00:00Z Senior
4417 US404280EN53 2024-03-05T00:00:00Z Subordinated
4418 US404280EN53 2024-03-14T00:00:00Z Subordinated
4419 US404280EN53 2024-03-14T00:00:00Z Subordinated
4420 US404280EN53 2024-03-18T00:00:00Z Subordinated
4421 US404280EN53 2024-03-19T00:00:00Z Senior
4422 US404280EN53 2024-03-19T00:00:00Z Senior

I can see that different values are downloaded for different dates.

  1. How do I access a record at a particular date?
  2. Debt classification almost never changes. Why are these values changing so often?

Thanks for any help

    Hello Andrew,

    You can check the Data Item Browser for the list of fields that can be used with an instrument. Type in DIB on the Eikon/Workspace bar.

    The field TR.NISeniorSubordinatedDebtIndicator does not seem to be applicable to the instrument US404280EN53. It is not showing up on the DIB for this instrument.

    I would recommend that you open a content help ticket at LSEG MyAccount and ask these two questions.
