Eikon Data API and Ubuntu

Hi All,

Has anyone actually solved how they can use the Eikon Data API but an Ubuntu workstation? I'm interested to hear of experiences getting it to work, or not.

Hi @jeremy.cahill

Eikon Desktop app is not supported on Ubuntu.

You may use "CODEBOOK" app on Eikon Web access.

The "CODEBOOK" is hosted by Refinitiv and it allows you to execute Eikon Data API.
