DSS REST API Options Search

Hi,


We have a futures user who we have recommended uses the Futures & Option search via API to get the constituent RICs for their Intraday Pricing (only) data extractions.

I just wanted to check that unlike the GUI (max. 5000 records) the API retrieves and paginates all/ full results through iterating the "@odata.nextlink" string value?


For reference only:

The extraction limits are https://hosted.datascopeapi.reuters.com/RestApi.Help/Home/ExtractionLimits

Intraday Pricing

50000 instruments before file code and chain expansion;

50000 after file code and chain expansion.


Best regards,

Gareth

Hi @gareth.teage,

The FuturesAndOptionsSearch of REST API supports Server-Driven paging as per metadata xml.

The search result of GUI is limited to 2000 identifiers. While with REST API, I am able to get results more than 50000 identifiers, so I think it provides all search results.
