Hi @maximilian.kamner, Eikon and DSWS are two are distinct API's, with their own API keys, and will need two unique queries to get data.

Hello @maximilian.kamner

The Datastream Web Service API (DSWS) also requires different credential (user/password) from Eikon API. You can find more detail regarding DSWS API in this page.
