I was not setting the app id for Eikon. The git lib for reikon explain we need to downlaod it. when downlaoded, the readme file states keys have been integrated into Windows terminal of Eikon and have no need to be downlaoded seperately. It goes on to further state that we can extract these keys from the Eikon Terminal directly - I had missed this part and had assume we did not need the Keys anymore.
