Can Eikon Data APIs give me historical forex exchange rates with a data point frequency of 15 minutes or lower?

I want exchange rates for USD-EUR, USD-CAD, USD-GBP, and USD-AUD for the past three months, and I want a time series frequency which is not greater than 15 minutes. Can I retrieve this from Eikon Data API?

Hi @magnublo, you can use the following:

ek.get_timeseries(["USDEUR=R"], fields=["Close"], start_date = "2019-11-01", end_date = "2019-11-13",interval="minute")
