I would like to download US monthly CPI, norminal CPI and core CPI via eikon api. However, I cannot find relevant api functions for this purpose. I would appreciate if anyone could point me to the right direction.
Upgrade from Eikon -> Workspace. Learn about programming differences.
For a deeper look into our Eikon Data API, look into:

Hi @yansheng.ming ,
If you want to retrieve historical series of the economic indicators, I would advise using Refinitiv Data Libraries for Python (see the documentation and the quick start here). See an example below:
import refinitiv.data as rd rd.open_session()
rd.get_history(universe=["USCPI=ECI", "USCPIM=ECI", "aUSCPFYAR"], start = '2020-01-01', end = '2024-07-17')
To verify the RICs and also for other economic fields you can contact HelpDesk via Eikon/Wokspace Help center or through my.refinitiv.com.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Haykaz
