I don't seem to be able to get TR.FOLastTradingDate for some rics using the Python API. I'm able to get it through DIB though. The strange thing is once I have looked it up using DIB, it becomes available through the Python API. Maybe it is cached somewhere? The main question is why can't I get this field TR.FOLastTradingDate for example for the following rics:
ADZ6^1, ADZ5^1, ADU8^1, ADU7^1, ADU6^1, ADM8^1, ADM7^1, ADM6^1, ADH8^1, ADH7^1, ADH6^1, CN7^1, CK8^1, CK7^1

@quan.zheng The RICs you are requesting are all expired rics but I can receive data for all of them. I hope this can help.
rics = ['ADZ6^1', 'ADZ5^1', 'ADU8^1', 'ADU7^1', 'ADU6^1', 'ADM8^1', 'ADM7^1', 'ADM6^1', 'ADH8^1', 'ADH7^1', 'ADH6^1', 'CN7^1','CK8^1', 'CK7^1'] df, err = ek.get_data(rics, "TR.FOLastTradingDate") df
The rics I mentioned here was a subset of the rics I used. It appears if you have a long list (say 100 rics) Eikon doesn't return TR.FOLastTradingDate for all rics. However if you split this in smaller subsets (say 20 each time), Eikon doesn't have a problem returning TR.FOLastTradingDate for all rics.
