Missing timeseries fields

I am unable to find all of the same timeseries fields in the API that are available in Excel. Is there a way to access the additional fields? Possibly using Javascript part of the API? Could someone provide an example?

@zachary.cordes

The get_timeseries method of Eikon Data APIs can only retrieve historical data from the default view.

To get historical data from other views, you can try other APIs, such as .NET APIs for use in custom applications or Refinitiv Data Platform APIs: Historical Pricing.

Hi @zachary.cordes

Please refer to the document at https://docs-developers.refinitiv.com/1582080558180/14684/book/en/eikon/index.html#get_timeseries

You can use fields="*" in parameter to get all available fields.

But please note that not all the fields are supported (compare to Eikon Excel)
