Datastream Web Service: how to get a DSCode based on ISIN and Currency

Using Datstream Web Service: How do I get a datastream code (mnemonic) based on ISIN and currency?

For instance: the ETF IE00B4613386 are quoted in different markets and the DS code EMDD is for rge one quoted in London in USD, and the code D:SYBM is quoted in Xetra in Euro.

Thanks

Maybe my question is not clear ...

Since I want use the Datastream Web Service API, I need to deduct the it via code (ie. matlab).

I know I can find it the Navigator, but if I need to do it for 100 ISINs use the Navigator is really time consuming.

Hello @c.aydemir,

Where you able to search up multiple instruments as you required either via Navigator or by involving Refinitiv Content helpdesk as suggested by @Monika.Stankovic ?

Hello @zoya.farberov,

thank you for asking.

unfortunately the answer given by @Monika.Stankovic was useless, is not what I need/want to do.

In order to find a DS Code, I don't want to use manually the Navigator but I want to do that via coding.

thanks

Cihan

Hello @c.aydemir,

The functionality within the product is as product expert @Monika.Stankovic has described,

Currently, the best course of action is to use as suggested by the product expert, and lookup via Navigator or Content Helpdesk.

As a longer term solution, optionally, raise an Enhancement Request on product Datastream to prioritize an additional or imporved functonality.
