The Context guide of SxS refers to JET.navigate functionality within Eikons AppStudio for details related to context for Eikon applications.

Therefore, according to the Tutorial 8 - Opening an Eikon News object, you can also use NewsQuery in the context.

 entities: [{
        NewsQuery: "TRI.N"
    }]

For Quote Object, you need to use the following request:

{
    "command": "launch",
    "sessionToken": "xxx",
    "appId": "Quote Object",
    "context": {
       "entities": [{
           "RIC": "PTT.BK"
           }]
    }
}

The appId should be "Quote Object".
