Hi @roshan.suddhoo,
What you're looking for is this:
https://developers.thomsonreuters.com/tr-eikon-scripting-apis-eap-limited-access
Unfortunately it's not launched yet, but it is going Beta in a matter of weeks. Once in Beta this API will be available to all Eikon users. The full launch is planned in the middle of the year.

Hi @roshan.suddhoo,
It's difficult to answer your question without context. Thomson Reuters has numerous APIs that can be used in Python, and these APIs provide very different capabilities. It would be helpful to start by defining in a few words what you'd like to do with the API. I.e. what kind of application (desktop, enterprise) you'd like to build, and what type of data (market data, fundamental and reference data, timeseries) you'd like your application to consume.
Hi Alex.
I simply want to query Eikon via python on an ad-hoc basis in order to load in prices (for example: "GBP="), feed these into my signals and generate some statistics.
So, basically, I am looking for a 1-liner to get the history of "GBP=" into python.
Thank you,
Roshan

This is great! Many of the providers are going this route - for example:
import quandl
mydata = quandl.get("FRED/GDP")
