Retrieving Options' Exercise Style

I need to identify the exercise style(European or American) of the options that the get.data() method returns.

According to Data Item Browser, the data item name <Exercise Style> with a description "The option exercise style.Possible values are European, American, Event Linked or Schedule" should do the job.

So I add the data item code ['TR.WarrantExerciseStyle'] into the field of my get_data() method.

However the terminal returns ""Unable to collect data for the field 'TR.WarrantExerciseStyle' and some specific identifier(s).", 'row': 0"

Is it a user right issue or should I use some other method?

Hi @22609795

You need to use 'PUT_CALL' field

ek.get_data(['SPXWS062090000.U','NDXg172040000.U','IBMG172012000.U'],'PUT_CALL')

If you know that this field is available on the real time quote then you can check its name by hover over that value.
