I retrieved spyder (with Python 3.6.5) and tested too run a script.
I didn't face to any issue.
To investigate your issue , you can activate Information log in Eikon and provide the SxS logfile.
@nicholas.harper Can you provide the information to investigate this issue that is required by @pierre.faurel?

import logging
logging.basicConfig()
ek.set_app_key('xxxxx')
headlines = ek.get_news_headlines('EU AND POL',1)
story = headlines.iat[0,2]
ek.get_news_story(story)
I logged in and out again and I have received a different error message show below

First suggestion : you should hide you app_key in your post. Edit it then replace it with xxxxx in both lines :
- ek.set_app_key('xxxxx')
- INFO:pyeikon:Application ID: xxxxx
The error means you don't have credentials to use Eikon API.
You should contact your account manager and/or Eikon support to check this point.
You can confirm by yourself in the following log file C:\ProgramData\Thomson Reuters\Eikon Data\Logs\TRD\Eikon.<yyyymmdd>.<hhmmss>.pxxxxx\SxS.<yyyymmdd>.<hhmmss>.pyyyyy.txt
If you have credentials, you should find this line :
[2018-08-03 11:41:06.750|1|SxS|1|INFO] PO: SIDEBYSIDE,APIPROXY
If you don't have credentials, the line will be :
[2018-08-03 11:41:06.750|1|SxS|1|INFO] PO: SIDEBYSIDE

Hi Pierre
I am not seeing either of those lines in the file. I should be enabled. This seems to be a specific issues with using spyder. I should have mentioned this before. This works fine when I use the command prompt
