Contract Specification via Tick History

Good day,

I am trying to get, via the RTH REST API, the details for future contract specifications. As an example I have the RIC <IEU/LCO>. I am able to get this via the "View Page" option under the Historical search, like so:

contract-specs.png

The good thing about using this option being a "Search" option, is also that this will not count towards RTH usage Quota. How could we get this same functionality via the API.

Thank you very much,

Marcel

Hi @Marcel,

The page you are referring to "IEU/LCO" is a Speed Guide page and can be retrieved using TickHistory Raw extraction request with atleast 7 days history request. E.g.query:

{
  "ExtractionRequest": {
    "@odata.type": "#DataScope.Select.Api.Extractions.ExtractionRequests.TickHistoryRawExtractionRequest",
    "IdentifierList": {
      "@odata.type": "#DataScope.Select.Api.Extractions.ExtractionRequests.InstrumentIdentifierList",
      "InstrumentIdentifiers": [{
          "Identifier": "IEU/LCO",
          "IdentifierType": "Ric"
        }
      ],
      "ValidationOptions": {
        "AllowHistoricalInstruments": True
      },
      "UseUserPreferencesForValidationOptions": False
    },
    "Condition": {
      "MessageTimeStampIn": "GmtUtc",
      "ReportDateRangeType": "Range",
      "QueryStartDate": "2021-01-01T06:20:00.000Z",
      "QueryEndDate": "2021-01-20T06:40:00.000Z",
      "DisplaySourceRIC": True,
      "ExtractBy": "Ric",
      "SortBy": "SingleByRic",
      "DomainCode": "MarketPrice",
    }
  }
}

Result:

I don't think speed guide pages count towards any usage quote, but please check with your Refinitiv account manager to be sure.

Hi Gurpreet,

I was aware of the TH Raw but if this was not counted towards Quota it would be a great solution indeed.

I will check with PUBS about this.

Many thanks!

Rgds,
Marcel
