Hi,

We are learning Eikon python API. There is get_timeseries function which can only get historical prices and volumes. Is there a python function to get historical fundamental data like EPS and ROE?

Thanks.

    Hi @dxu,

    You can use the get_data() function and specify a date range to retrieve historical fundamental data. The syntax would look something like:

    get_data(<instruments>,[<fields>],{'SDate':'2017-06-01','EDate':'2017-08-04'})

    for example.

    Within Eikon, I would highly recommend using the DIB - Data Item Browser to determine the available fields you can use for the instruments you are interested in.
