Add more columns to a Python monitor

Hello,

This code display my watchlist monitor Instrument and Close price

equity_watchlist,err = ek.get_data('Monitor("US Stocks")', ['CF_CLOSE'])

equity_watchlist

I would like to add more columns sur as CF_NAME, CF_LAST, CF_ASK and so on:

equity_watchlist,err = ek.get_data('Monitor("US Stocks")', ['CF_CLOSE'], ['CF_NAME'], ['CF_LAST'])

equity_watchlist

But I get an error each time I run the code. Could you please help me with that request?

Thanks

Can you please share the screenshot of the error you are getting?
Also try replacing the last second line of your code with:

equity_watchlist,err = ek.get_data('Monitor("US Stocks")', ['CF_CLOSE', 'CF_NAME','CF_LAST'])

It should work, Thanks
