Syntax Error

Hi,
I have received a formula for retrieving fund information, however, in order to apply the formula to multiple funds I am trying to translate it to python.

However, I am encountering a syntax error. Can I remove the limitation of 5000 firms or add a limitation of 1000 firms if the number of retrieved funds is becoming too large?

Formula I received from EIKON Support:
=@TR($C$2;"TR.FundHoldingRIC;TR.FundHoldingName;TR.FundLatestFilingDate;TR.FundPercentageOfFundAssets/100";"StartNum=1 EndNum=5000 CH=Fd NULL=BLANK")


Current Code Python:
constituents, err = ek.get_data(['US4642872265'],['TR.FundHoldingRIC','TR.FundHoldingName','TR.FundLatestFilingDate','TR.FundPercentageOfFundAssets'])
constituents


Error:

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I appreciate the support!

Best,Gabriel

Hi @gabriel.matejka ,

Could you please let me know which error are you facing, I can run the code properly.

funds = ['US4642872000',
         'US0378331005',
         'IE00BFMNPS42',
         'LU0907928062',
         'LU2080995587',
         'LU1806494412',
         'US67066G1040',
         'LU0113258742',
         'LU0248041781',
         'US02079K3059',

df, err = ek.get_data(funds,
                      fields=["TR.FundHoldingRIC",
                              "TR.FundHoldingName",
                              #"TR.HQCountryCode",

Hi Raksina,


it runs properly on my end now too.. I believe it was a time-out error the last time I tried it. I tried it with EndNum 500 but that also works properly now.
Thank you in any case!

Best
Gabriel

Hi @gabriel.matejka

Try the following:

df, err = ek.get_data("US4642872265", 
                      fields=["TR.FundHoldingRIC", 
                              "TR.FundHoldingName", 
                              "TR.FundLatestFilingDate", 
                              "TR.FundPercentageOfFundAssets/100"],
                      parameters={'StartNum': '1', 'EndNum': '5000'})

This works great! Sorry to bother again however if I add more RICs there is an Error again:

Do I need to filter the RICs beforehand according to their categories?

funds = ['US4642872000',
'US0378331005',
'IE00BFMNPS42',
'LU0907928062',
'LU2080995587',
'LU1806494412',
'US67066G1040',
'LU0113258742',
'LU0248041781',
'US02079K3059',
'LU1602092758',
'NL0010273215',
'US0378331005',
'FR0000121972',
'LU1681049018',
'DK0060534915',
'LU0355583906',
'LU1951342788',
'AT0000A1K9C8']

df, err = ek.get_data(funds,
fields=["TR.FundHoldingRIC",
"TR.FundHoldingName",
#"TR.HQCountryCode",
"TR.FundLatestFilingDate",
"TR.FundPercentageOfFundAssets/100"],
parameters={'StartNum': '1', 'EndNum': '10'})

df

Thank you very much in advance!
