Hi,
Is it possible for me to connect and run queries using the python data API without being logged into reuters?
Is the application id sufficient for authentication?
I have a few automated scripts that use the reuters API and would like the scripts to run even if I got logged out of reuters due to inactivity.

No. As Python API sends all request to Eikon Desktop, you have to be logged.
>Is the application id sufficient for authentication?
The application ID identifies the application consumer (and not the user), it's a second level of authentication.
