Hi

I am trying to get specific terms of news about JPY= -i.g. from 2018-01-10 to 2018-01-16- using date_from and date_to parameters. But whenever I try to get it, only latest news are available.

How can I get news for specific terms? And is it available to get historical data through python?

cf,headlines = ek.get_news_headlines("R:JPY= IN JAPANESE", count=5, date_from='2018-01-10', date_to='2018-01-16')

    From my test, the returned results are ordered by date (versionCreated). The latest date will appear first.

    headlines = ek.get_news_headlines("R:JPY= IN JAPANESE", count=100, date_from='2018-01-10T14:00:00', date_to='2018-01-10T15:00:00')
    headlines

    For the search criteria, it can contain RIC codes, company names, country names and
    operators (AND, OR, NOT, IN, parentheses and quotes for explicit search…).
