Is there an equivalent HTTP request to RtGet() in Eikon API?

Hi there!

I'm developing an application in R, so most of my data (including other APIs form Reuters) is collected via HTTP request, but I couldn't find anywhere whether I can call an equivalent to RtGet() or not.

The objective is to get the ticker changes and delistings that I get with, for exemple, RtGet("IDN","IS/CHANGE2","ROW80_5") that shows me something like this: https://community.developers.refinitiv.com/storage/attachments/1711-cusersu8015886desktopchanges.png.

Is there a way to do this?

You can use R library available under
https://github.com/ahmedmohamedali/eikonapir
The data retrieval call for what you're interested in is
get_data('IS/CHANGE2',list('ROW80_3','ROW80_4','ROW80_5'))
This R library mimics the interface of the Python library implementing Eikon Data APIs.
