I am a student at Copenhagen Business School, the school has access to EIKON and Datastream. Therefore, I have access to the application called "advance search" in Refinitiv Eikon. From advance search, I have exported a query that uses the following syntax:
rdp.search( view = rdp.SearchViews.GovCorpInstruments, top = 10, filter =, select =)
Can I use the following syntax with the access that we have?
If yes, is there a tutorial on how to use the rdp.search() in python?
Hi @edgr19ab ,
There's a great article on just that:
https://developers.refinitiv.com/en/article-catalog/article/building-search-into-your-application-workflow
And I've made a python function for an upcoming article on how you may want to use programmatic search looking for bond data (see comment below)
This function outputs an excel workbook with collected data. It is not finished yet and I am currently testing it:

Hi @edgr19ab ,
Please try a search query in CodeBook on your Refinitiv Workspace/Eikon application under '__Examples__/01. Data Retrieval & Discovery/01.02. Refinitiv Data Platform Library/EX_01_02_02__Function__Search.ipynb'. For info on CodeBook, please see this video:
https://developers.refinitiv.com/en/video-catalog/from-developer-articles-to-codebook
Failing that, please note that this forum is explicitly for API questions. Your question seems to be a permissioning one. For such questions please go to our help desk on https://my.refinitiv.com/content/mytr/en/signin.html/
