web alternative to COM API ?

We are currently using Eikon COM API to retrieve the following data :

  • RIC
  • debt instruments (bonds, loans) with full related informations
  • historical data : yields, issuance information, credit rating information
  • currency and industry curves


What would be an alternative API to avoid installing Eikon on the computer ?

Could we retrieve the same data via webservice call or webapi directly ? Would it be possible via Refinitiv workspace or the Eikon Data platform for example ?

Thanks

    To receive this data without installing Eikon, you should consider the Refinitv Data Platform APIs. Refinitiv Data Platform provides simple web-based API access to a broad range of content. Please refer to the product page for currently available services.

    However, it may not be covered all content supported by Eikon COM. You need to contact your account representative for more details and to request access.

    You can also use the Refinitiv Data Libraries (Python, .NET, and TypeScript) to access the Refinitv Data Platform APIs.
