in RFA

We're upgrading to newer RFA8.0 API. For indices we normally sent ^XTC.NaE" but this doesn't work any more in newer API. Please help. Thanks!

    Hi @jzhao

    Do you mean "Arca N.A. Telecom Index"?
    The Arca N.A. Telecom RIC is .XTC or 0#.XTC for chain.

    I suspect that you are upgrading from an old version that use 4-part subject name convention.

    .NaE means "not from the exchange". It is used in the old 4-part subject name convention where request subject must consist of "<Server>.<Service>.<Item>.<Exchange>".

    RFA 8.0 nolonger use 4-part subject name and doesn't need .NaE extension with consolidated RICs anymore.

    If you are looking for other RICs, you can use our RIC search tool

    Hi @Warat B. Thank you very much for the reply. You're right that we're upgrading from the 4-part subject name convention. Yes the RIC symbol ".XTC" works fine. However I didn't find any documentation describing the conventions. Thank you.
