    use the ElektronTimeseriesExtractionRequest to get the settlement price

  • @lei.cheng,

    First of all, there are several issues with your call, it will fail:

    • Comma after the "]" just after the InstrumentIdentifiers declaration must be removed
    • The ElektronTimeSeries extraction request does not deliver those 3 price fields, the correct field names are: "High", "Open", "Low"
    • The Condition must include this: "ReportDateRangeType": "Range",

    I changed the call to this to have it run without error:

    {
    "ExtractionRequest": {
    "@odata.type": "#ThomsonReuters.Dss.Api.Extractions.ExtractionRequests.ElektronTimeseriesExtractionRequest",
    "ContentFieldNames": [
    "Settlement Price", "Volume", "High", "Open", "Low"
    ],
    "IdentifierList": {
    "@odata.type": "#ThomsonReuters.Dss.Api.Extractions.ExtractionRequests.InstrumentIdentifierList",
    "InstrumentIdentifiers": [{ "Identifier": "CMAL3", "IdentifierType":"Ric" }]
    },
    "Condition": {
    "ReportDateRangeType": "Range",
    "QueryStartDate": "2017-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",
    "QueryEndDate": "2018-08-30T00:00:00.000Z"
    }
    }
    }

    This ran, and delivered all fields except the Settlement price, which was always empty (even though I extended the date range to start in Jan 2017).

    Explanation: that is simply because there is no settlement price for instrument CMAL3, which is a commodity future. Try an equity (for instance CARR.PA), you will get Settlement Price values.

  • @lei.cheng, I updated my answer for open, high and low.

    As stated, the settlement price seems not to be available for CMAL3. For a data content query like this one, the best and speediest way to receive an answer is to open a content-related enquiry via My Account or to call the Thomson Reuters Help Desk directly.
