so the method mentioned by @zoya.farberov sometimes works, but not always (as I found out painfully today). It fails when the number of RICs that are inside the chain RIC are over a certain but not precisely disclosed threshold.

Hello @opsp,

get_data method accepts chain RIC as instrument input parameter, so this would be a simple way to expand a chain:

Do you mean all the available CF_ fields?

In this case, you can just open a quote application and click on "Display all fields"
