Hi,
Sometimes I get data and sometimes I do not when using this function (found on the pages). Any ideas?
df, err = ek.get_data(RIC,["TR.SurfVolMoneyness.tenor","TR.SurfVolMoneyness.range", "TR.SurfVolMoneyness"],{"Range":"50;200", "Tenor":"1M;12M", "VolType":"MID"})

Add raw_output=True parameter as follows:
ek.get_data([".FTSE"],["TR.SurfVolMoneyness.tenor","TR.SurfVolMoneyness.range", "TR.SurfVolMoneyness"],{"Range":"50;200", "Tenor":"1M;12M", "VolType":"MID"},raw_output=True)
With raw_output=True get_data method returns raw JSON from the Web service providing the data as opposed to a tuple containing pandas dataframe and error when raw_output=False or omitted.
What does get_data method return with raw_output=True?
Do you see any patterns for when you get and don't get the data requested? Is it the same RIC every time? When you don't get the data, do you get any error messages? Is anything returned into err variable? Is an exception raised? What exactly are the symptoms you experience?
Hi
Content of err: [{'code': 412, 'col': 1, 'message': 'Unable to resolve all requested identifiers.', 'row': 0}, {'code': 412, 'col': 2, 'message': 'Unable to resolve all requested identifiers.', 'row': 0}, {'code': 412, 'col': 3, 'message': 'Unable to resolve all requested identifiers.', 'row': 0}]
Worked last night for RIC=.ftse, Doesn't work this morning for .ftse and ERR=''
Did you mean to include the error message? If you did, the error message didn't post. I'm not reproducing on my end any problem retrieving this data for RIC=".FTSE". Are you able to retrieve the same data in Excel using =TR(".FTSE","TR.SurfVolMoneyness.tenor;TR.SurfVolMoneyness.range;TR.SurfVolMoneyness","Range=50;200 Tenor=1M;12M VolType=MID") worksheet function?
There was no error message. Yes, it works in Excel (Windows) but not in Python (Mac).
