@samara, iIf your purpose is just to validate that the instruments exist you could use the following API call:

Method: POST

Endpoint: https://hosted.datascopeapi.reuters.com/RestApi/v1/Extractions/InstrumentListValidateIdentifiersWithOptions

Body:

{
  "InputsForValidation": [
    {
      "Identifier": "CARR.PA",
      "IdentifierType": "Ric"
    },
    {
      "Identifier": "EUR=",
      "IdentifierType": "Ric"
    }
  ],
  "Options": {
    "AllowDuplicateInstruments": false,
    "AllowHistoricalInstruments": true,
    "AllowInactiveInstruments": true,
    "AllowOpenAccessInstruments": false,
    "AllowUnsupportedInstruments": false,
    "ExcludeFinrAsPricingSourceForBonds": false,
    "UseConsolidatedQuoteSourceForCanada": false,
    "UseConsolidatedQuoteSourceForUsa": false,
    "UseDebtOverEquity": false,
    "UseExchangeCodeInsteadOfLipper": false,
    "UseUsQuoteInsteadOfCanadian": false
  }
}

If you want to validate historical and inactive instruments ensure you set these 2 parameters true:

    "AllowHistoricalInstruments": true,
    "AllowInactiveInstruments": true,
