Retrieving some data for an equity

I'm tryng to retrieve, with Datascope service REST API, the following informations:

    • Code Sedol
      • Name
        • Iso Country
          • Price Currency
            • Industry Sector Description
              • Industry SectorCode

              • For an equity. Unfortunately the search option does not fit these requirement, as far as I tried, and I did not find another method. What's the correct way of operating?

                What we need is the API way of doing the "Summary" as the web guy provide, for any kind of instrument.

              A Terms and Conditions extraction will deliver all those fields, and many more (there are more than a thousand available).

              This extraction call is described in the REST API Tutorial 7. At the start of that tutorial you will find the description of an API call to query the list of available fields. If you want to test it in Postman you can download the collection from the downloads tab.

              You can also browse the field list in the DSS GUI, by creating a new Terms and Conditions report (it is in the Reference Data section), and going to the field selection tab.
