Hi @Dominic.desaleslaterriere Please could you tell us what version of Eikon, Eikon Library and Python you are running. Also please list versions for the following libraries in python, httpx and nest-asynchio.

Please also try to clear the Eikon cache using tools=>clear cache and restart to see if that helps.

@Dominic.desaleslaterriere ok you can check the eikon library version by:

import eikon as ek
ek.__version__

Have you seen this thread and also this thread. I think they can help you. Please let me know how you get on.

@Dominic.desaleslaterriere ok great that shows the proxy and API are running. After you configured the logs - please shutdown eikon, restart machine and restart eikon then check for the presence of the SxS logfile. Apols this is bit labourious.
