python gets chains RIC

Hello,
I'm using Python to call chains from aip.refinitiv.com to obtain the RIC. However, I get a 403 Forbidden error. However, I can obtain the RIC directly from https://apidocs.refinitiv.com/.
1, I'm wondering if this is a problem with my Python token settings or a permissions issue.
2, Does it require permissions for the client_id in addition to the rdp account?
3, Also, is the client_id the machine id or the api key configured in the app key generator?

Hello @ianianian

Did you run the Python code with the same RDP username and password as on the API Playground page?

The following error message:

'code': 'insufficient_scope', 'message': 'access denied. Scopes required to access the resource: [trapi.data.pricing.read]. Missing scopes: [trapi.data.pricing.read]',

means your RDP username does not have a permission to request data from /data/pricing/chains/ endpoint. The RDP permission sets do not associate with the appkey/clientid.

You can generate the App Key on the App-Key generator tool and website. The tool is available on the Workspace desktop application. The website link is available on the API Playground page.

Additionally, I see you set the appkey as "GE-A-XXXX" format. This is a version 2 client-id that act as a username for the Authentication Version 2. The Version 1 client-id/appkey should be just random text and numeric like abc4123…. format.

@wasin.w V3Thank you for your reply. I'll open a case to inquire about my RDP permissions. By the way, is client_id the same as api_key?

Hello @ianianian

Yes, the appkey is the API Key. Please note that you must check the "EDP API" box when you generate the appkey.

Please be informed that the appkey is your sensitive credential. Do not share in on this public forum.
