Get the history changes of RIC

inzilya · June 25

Hello! I am using python library lseg-data.
My question is how can I get the history changes of RICs and its previous names, so that my prices are correct? For example Facebook was FB.O but after rebranding it became META.O, I used symbology but did not get the expected result.

You can try the search API.

df = ld.discovery.search(
    view = ld.discovery.Views.SEARCH_ALL,
    filter = "RIC eq 'META.O'",
    select="RIC,SymbolHistoryScope"
)
    
df['SymbolHistoryScope'][0]

For more information, please refer to the https://developers.lseg.com/en/article-catalog/article/building-search-into-your-application-workflow article.

Hello @inzilya

I am not aware of any API which keeps track of the RIC changes. You can subscribe to the Symbol Change Reports on the LSEG MyAccount to view upcoming changes. In your application, you can use PermID for an instrument - which is designed to survive the changes in the instrument name.
