How to get share classes for listed companies via API?

Hi, we want to get all share classes for listed companies. For example, Square Inc. has class A share (listed) and class B share (private). We are not sure what is the command to get this information via API or on Eikon app. Thanks!

I found the TR.ShareClass field. You can get it by using the following code.

df,err = ek.get_data(["SQ","ZDGE.A"], "TR.ShareClass")
df

The output is:

If this is not what you need, please contact the Eikon support team directly via MyRefinitiv and ask for the Eikon Excel formula which can be used to retrieve the required data.

If the formula is available, we may be able to apply it to the Eikon Data API.
