I am interested in getting macro economic data at fortnightly frequency. I am using the following formula :
batch_str=

INCBNFO*100, INCBINV*100, INCBAGG*100, INCBCRE*100, INCBCFC*100


df = ds.get_data(tickers=batch_str,
freq='14D',
start="13/10/24")

It gives an error. Whats the workaround for this please

    I ran this code:

    ds.get_data(tickers='INM3...*100', freq='W', end="02/05/25", start="13/10/17")

    @Hemant

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    It doesn't support the 14D frequency.

    Frequency should be one of D, W, M, Q, Y, 7D, 7DPAD, 7DME or 7DMEPAD 
    

    Please contact the Datastream support team directly via the LSEG support to verify this.

    Thanks @Jirapongse . I am using "INM3…*100" to pull in some data using the excel formula and getting the results but using the same I am not able to pull in via API . The python code is as follows df = ds.get_data(tickers='INM3…*100', freq='W', end="02/05/25", start="13/10/17")dfI am interested in getting M3 for India
