TRTH: Searching RICS by API

unknown

Hi there,

I'm now looking for the way to find RICs, because I don't have Eikon.

I have a PDF version of Eikon code reference but it doesn't include all RICs I wanted to extract from API server.

Is there any way to find exact RICs like OAT future, KOSPI future, option?

Thanks,

I am not perfectly clear on the question. The RIC Search Tool seems to work great, especially for finding RICs for indexes, like KOSPI 200 Index, (.KS200). However to identify futures related to KOSPI or OAT simply use the FuturesAndOptionSearch supplying just a description of "KOSPI" or "OAT".

Example:

POST https://hosted.datascopeapi.reuters.com/RestApi/v1/Search/FuturesAndOptionsSearch HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Token <your_auth_token_goes_here>
Prefer: odata.maxpagesize=10; respond-async
{
"SearchRequest": {
"FileCodes": null,
"CurrencyCodes": null,
"Description": "KOSPI",
"ExchangeCodes": null,
"StrikePrice": null,
"ExpirationDate": null,
"IdentifierType": "Ric",
"PreferredIdentifierType": "Ric"
}
}
