Can I use python-API without having Eikon installed in the computer?

Hi Team,

Good day.

Client is asking if he can use python-API without having Eikon installed in the PC. There is a possibility that they will be switching to "web access" and will have the software removed from their computer. Client is getting an error when running the API without having Eikon software open. Would you please provide recommendation on this?

Thank you.

Hello @VyaJunaine.Gutierrez

The client can use the Codebook app on the Eikon/Workspace web version to run a Python script. Please see more detail on the Use Eikon Data API or RDP Library in Python in CodeBook on Web Browser article.

Hi @VyaJunaine.Gutierrez

Does the client want to run their application using their own Python environment without Eikon? Or do they prefer to run their application within a hosted runtime site? If the latter, they could possibly use CodeBook.
