Dear all, is it possible to pull data with EIKON API also for DSWS for desktop or do you need two different queries to pull the data (one for EIKON API and one for DSWS for Desktop) ?

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.
