Backend Error 400 ... creeping up regularly ... is there a way to avoid?

I am getting the famous 400 relatively often. Process runs fine, the slows. Same Code for ages, sometimes produces the error, sometimes not.

Is there a way to get to the bottom of it?

Had a couple of '500' as well, rarely though.

Again, absolutely no code changes from my side

Python 3.9.16, DataSPELL, Eikon 1.1.16

Hi @the.swiss ,


That's not an authentication issue, and perhaps is related to API overload. My colleague @jason.ramchandani01 is suggesting a workflow to overcome the issue in this thread. You may want to have a look and see if that can be applied to your case.


Best regards,

Haykaz

HI @the.swiss ,


Are you using large number of RICs/fields in one request? Would you mind trying our latest RD Libraries for Python? Happy to suggest RD equivalent of your eikon code if required.


Best regards,

Haykaz

thanks, moving to RDP is on my list, however, failed a few times. Seemed temperamental.

do you have an easy guide?

cheers

sure, I believe this GitHub repo would be very handful both for QuickStart and for more advanced queries.

Quick glance at it - not too obvious - will need more time soon

So apart from switching to RDP there really is no answer to random Error 400 and, lately, 500 errors creeping up?

Authentication issues?
