I am currently collecting way points of our vessels using Eikon via Excel with the function:
=TR("C}BT7309778980",
"TR.AssetName,TR.AssetLocationStatus,TR.AssetLocationLatitude,TR.AssetLocationLongitude",,C12)
Is there a way to get this data via API ? I tried RFA and Eikon Desktop Data .NET API, but these types of RICs and FIDs are apparently not supported. Would the DEX2 COM API provide that functionality ? Any other recommendation ? Thanks for any hint !
