Port 9000 was retrieved from .portInUse file

Hello,

I am very eager to get started with the API, but I am already running into issues.

My example:

import eikon as ek
ek.set_app_id('xxx') # replaced ID
ek.get_symbology(["MSFT.O", "GOOG.O", "IBM.N"], from_symbol_type="RIC", to_symbol_type="ISIN")

Should output:

                ISIN
GOOG.O  US02079K1079
IBM.N   US4592001014
MSFT.O  US5949181045

However, my output is:

Port 9000 was retrieved from .portInUse file

Hi @bjl,

Have you tried placing the get_symbology() line on its own to see if you see any output? For example, within notebook, it looks like this:

If there is some kind of issue, I would expect to see some form of output.

Hello @nick.zincone.1

Your instinct was spot on.

I have to admit that I have not seen that behaviour before. Executing the code line-by-line does indeed yield the correct output.

Thank you.

Hi @bjl, have you defined the data frame variable ? please have a look into the quick start examples. I'm using Anaconda and I'm getting the same result with no result in the variable explorer

Adding a variable name and the "=" plus print of the variable will lead to
