Thank you for all your help! It does indeed seem to be some kind of network problem on my end.

@benedikt-luka.antic

Thank you for reaching out to us.

It may relate to the HTTP timeout. You can try to increase the timeout value in the RD library configuration file (refinitiv-data.config.json), as shown below. The sample refinitiv-data.config.json is available on GitHub.

{
    "http": {       
        "request-timeout": 60
    },
    "logs": {
...
    }
...
}

Otherwise, you can change the timeout value by using the following code.

rd.get_config()["http.request-timeout"] = 60

Hi @benedikt-luka.antic ,

This seems to be related to the HTTP time out as Jirapongse answered in this question as below

You can try to increase the HTTP Request Timeout by changing its value in the Refinitiv Data Library configuration file (refinitiv-data.config.json).

{
    "http": {        
        "request-timeout": 60        
    },
  "logs": {
    "level": "debug",
    "transports": {
      "console": {
        "enabled": false
      },
      "file": {
        "enabled": false,
        "name": "refinitiv-data-lib.log"
      }
    }
  },
  "sessions": {
    "default": "desktop.workspace",
...

To load the configuration file, please refer to the example on GitHub.

Please let me know in case there's any further questions

Thank you both for your answer! I have increased the http timeout as shown above (rd.get_config()["http.request-timeout"] = 60), however I still get the same error after a couple of seconds. I think it is related to 'httpx', since the timeout reads 'httpx.ReadTimeout: timed out'.

I tried to find a way to increase the or disable the timeout of httpx, but was not succesful.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Please try to set it before calling the open_session.

import refinitiv.data as rd
rd.get_config()["http.request-timeout"] = 60
rd.open_session()
data = rd.discovery.search(
    view = rd.discovery.Views.GOV_CORP_INSTRUMENTS,
    top = 10000,
    filter = "((DbType eq 'GOVT' or DbType eq 'CORP' or DbType eq 'AGNC' or DbType eq 'OMUN' or DbType eq 'OTHR') and RCSAssetCategory eq 'A:J' and IsActive eq true and (RCSBondGradeLeaf eq 'Investment Grade' or RCSBondGradeLeaf eq 'High Yield' or RCSBondGradeLeaf ne 'Investment Grade' and RCSBondGradeLeaf ne 'High Yield') and MaturityDate ge 2024-07-24 and (DenominationMinimum le 1000 and FaceOutstanding ge 100000000 and RCSCouponTypeGenealogy eq 'M:1EU\A:C1\A:25' and IsPrivatePlacement eq false and RCSCouponCurrencyLeaf xeq 'Euro' and IsExchangeListed eq true and RCSCurrencyLeaf eq 'Euro' and (SukukExchangeName xeq 'FRANKFURT STOCK EXCHANGE' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'STUTTGART STOCK EXCHANGE' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'MUNICH STOCK EXCHANGE' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'BERLIN STOCK EXCHANGE' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'DUSSELDORF STOCK EXCHANGE' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'TRADEGATE EXCHANGE' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'HAMBURG STOCK EXCHANGE' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'HANNOVER STOCK EXCHANGE' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'BORSA ITALIANA S.P.A.' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'LUXEMBOURG STOCK EXCHANGE' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE PLC' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'WIENER BOERSE AG' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'EURONEXT PARIS' or SukukExchangeName xeq 'SIX SWISS EXCHANGE')))",
    select = "DTSubjectName,MaturityDate,ISIN,DbTypeDescription"
)

You may check the version of RD Library. I am using 1.3.0.

rd.__version__

@benedikt-luka.antic

Please run the following command in Powershell to verify the connection.

(Invoke-WebRequest -Method POST -Header (@{"Authorization"="bearer 124563";"x-tr-applicationid"="DEFAULT_WORKSPACE_APP_KEY"}) -Body (@{"View"="GovCorpInstruments";"Query"="IBM";"Select"="DTSubjectName,InstrumentTypeDescription";"Top"=10000}|ConvertTo-Json) -Uri http://localhost:9060/api/rdp/discovery/search/v1/ -ContentType application/json)

The output looks like this:
