refinitiv-data failing on cookbook

Unable to run a simple test script on cookbook:
- Environment: LSEG Workspace Codebook.
- Library: refinitiv-data
- Library Version: 1.6.1 (as confirmed by rd.__version__)
- Python Version: Python 3.8 (from the traceback /opt/conda/lib/python3.8/)
- Problem Description: The standard session management functions like rd.is_session_open(), rd.open_session(), and rd.close_session() are not accessible and result in AttributeError: No refinitiv.data attribute <function_name>. This prevents the creation of a session, which is a prerequisite for data retrieval functions like rd.get_history().
- Minimal Reproducible Example:
import refinitiv.data as rd
import traceback
print(f"Using refinitiv.data version: {rd.__version__ if hasattr(rd, '__version__') else 'unknown'}")
try:
print("Attempting to check session status...")
status = rd.is_session_open()
print(f"Session status: {status}")
except AttributeError as ae:
print(f"AttributeError: {ae}")
traceback.print_exc()
except Exception as e:
print(f"Other Exception: {e}")
traceback.print_exc()
try:
print("\nAttempting to open a session...")
rd.open_session() # Default for Codebook
print("rd.open_session() called.")
if rd.is_session_open(): # This will also fail if open_session didn't make is_session_open available
print("Session appears to be open.")
rd.close_session()
print("Session closed.")
else:
print("Session does not appear to be open after calling open_session.")
except AttributeError as ae:
print(f"AttributeError: {ae}")
traceback.print_exc()
except Exception as e:
print(f"Other Exception during open_session: {e}")
traceback.print_exc()
This returns:
Using refinitiv.data version: 1.6.1
Attempting to check session status...
AttributeError: No refinitiv.data attribute is_session_open
Attempting to open a session...

Hello @Boris_Lastdrager
The session object does not have a method called is_session_open(). You can check session state by using the open_state property of session object.
Also, please use the newer LD Library instead of the RD Library.
