Data retrival for delisted ETFs

Hi Team,


trying to get benchmark name and ric for several ETFs (using their respective rics).

The following code works perfectly for listed/ active ETFs:

fields = ["TR.FundBenchmarkName", "TR.FundBenchmarkType", "TR.FundBenchmarkInstrumentRIC"]
ric = "SPY"
benchs = rd.get_data(ric, fields=fields)


However, for all delisted/ liquidated ETFs usually no data is returned or is missing, e.g., ric = "AAIT.O^H15"


I wasn't able to make it work using the search function if that would be an alternative [rdp.search()]


Is there any way to retrieve that data using the python API?

posting the response from the content team for reference -


Note:- It extracts the data for delisted RIC, but in this example, AAIT.O^H15, there is no Fund Manager benchmark index is mapped. If any index is fees liable index, we don't map Fund benchmark details to any ETF/Funds.

Hi @lanzani.juli , Your sample functions are using contents from Lipper (i.e. TR.Fundxxxxx), but from Lipper's perspective (i.e., data from fund companies, not exchanges), the "non-active" funds (liquidated and merged) funds currently are not supported on the Workspace platform. Liquidated and merged funds (historical data) are supported on Lipper Funds API and other Lipper products/services.
