Is there a way to pull a time series for qualitative fields for individual RICs? For example, there is a field that I'm interested in TR.CEOBoardMember, which is a qualitative data field. Is there a way to pull a time series of this datapoint (ie so I could see if this has always been the case, or when it changed etc) from the API?

Hi @scott.curry,
If the particular datafield in the Data Item Browser shows a series checkmark, then there is timeseries data available for it.
Using it in python yields:
>> df,err = ek.get_data('IBM.N', ['TR.CEOBoardMember', 'TR.CEOBoardMember.Date'], {'SDate': 0, 'EDate': -5, 'Frq': 'FY'})
Instrument CEO Board Member Date
