Hi, I have been trying to extract dividend data for all of the companies in the database. However, it seems cannot be done without listing the instrument. Is there some way that I could do that ? Thanks in advance
Upgrade from Eikon -> Workspace. Learn about programming differences.

I order to request data using one of our APIs like Data Libraries or Eikon, you need to pass the list of instrument RICs to the query: See below an example with Data Libraries:
import refinitiv.data as rd
rd.open_session()
df = rd.get_data(
universe = ["MSFT.O", "LSEG.L"],
fields = [
'TR.DividendYield',
'TR.F.DivYldComStockIssuePctAnnized',
'TR.DPSGrowth5Y'
'TR.DivExDate',
'TR.DivPayDate',
]
)
df
You can also pass index chains and the query will expand to show information on all constituents:
ftse_dividend = rd.get_data(
universe = ["0#.FTSE"],
fields = [
'TR.DividendYield',
'TR.F.DivYldComStockIssuePctAnnized',
'TR.DPSGrowth5Y'
'TR.DivExDate',
'TR.DivPayDate',
],
)
ftse_dividend
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Haykaz
