DataStreamWebService: Retrieving annual reports figures for previous years

Hello,
I want to use DataStream DSWS on Python to download yearly figures from Refinitiv, such as the revenue (WC01001) for a list of ISIN codes. Those figures should be obtained for the last 5 fiscal years. Is there a way to retrieve that information using a datatype formula (like it is possible to do with Eikon excel's plugin)? The constraint would be to send a request at the date of today to avoid sending multiple requests with different dates (that should be computed with the fiscal year end in mind).


Thanks,

Simon

You can try the following code.

df = ds.get_data(tickers="US4592001014", fields= ['WC01001'],kind=1, freq='Y', start='-10Y')

It returns:

You can refer to the Datastream Navigator to search for available data types, or refer to this page.
