I'm a student doing my master's thesis and I've been instructed by my former supervisor to use Refinitiv dataplatform so seek data and do calculations needed for the thesis in Python.

I've been trying to figure things out with documentation and tutorials for weeks and I'm unable to proceed. Also I'm not able to get any help from the school as my current supervisor doesn't know how to use the program.

I'm able to get historical closing prices of the needed active ETFs but I'm unable to proceed with calculations in Python. Any help or push to right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Example of the code from one Active ETF:

import refinitiv.data as rd
from refinitiv.data.content import historical_pricing
from refinitiv.data.content.historical_pricing import Intervals
from refinitiv.data.content.historical_pricing import Adjustments
from refinitiv.data.content.historical_pricing import MarketSession
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import asyncio
import datetime

rd.open_session()

response = historical_pricing.summaries.Definition(
    universe = "JEPI.K",
    interval = historical_pricing.Intervals.DAILY,
    start = datetime.date(2020, 1, 1), 
    end = datetime.date(2020, 12, 31),
    fields = ["TRDPRC_1"],
    adjustments = [
        Adjustments.EXCHANGE_CORRECTION,
        Adjustments.MANUAL_CORRECTION
    ]
).get_data()
# Extract in DataFrame format

response.data.df

JEPI.K TRDPRC_1
