HI, I just want to confirm that the property onRefresh() I can consider it as the initial snapshot of the instrument.
Stream stream = Factory.createStream( ItemStream.Params().session(session)
.name(instrument)
.onRefresh()
.onUpdate()
.onStatus() )
stream.open()
The callback/lambda expression used to capture the initial image containing all the specified fields for each item requested.
Thanks

Yes, you can.
The refresh message contains all available fields with the latest data of the instrument in its payload. Therefore, it can be treated as the initial snapshot of the instrument. Moreover, when you request the snapshot data, you will retrieve the data through the refresh message.
I would like to suggest using the new Refinitiv Data Library for .NET instead. Moreover, if you are interested in snapshot data (not streaming), you can refer to the 2.2.07-Pricing-StreamingSnapshot example.
Hello @lourdes.tovar01
On the Refintiv Real-Time streaming data, the Refresh (aka IMAGE) message is the complete set of values (price, etc) that represents the item. It contains all possible fields available for that RIC – including any currently empty fields. The refresh messages are sent to the application via the onRefresh() callback function.
Any updates that may follow due to changes in the market will be sent to the application as the Update message. The refresh messages are sent to the application via the onUpdate() callback function.
