I am trying to download historical employee count with the API, using
TR.Employees and get_data. But this only returns the current value. How do we get the history?
For a deeper look into our Eikon Data API, look into:

@9029ef3d-816c-4b3d-b8a4-7e45f818c246, in order to have the result returned as series make sure you specify the SDate and EDate:
df, e = ek.get_data('AAPL.O', 'TR.Employees.fperiod, TR.Employees', {'SDate':'0','EDate':'-9','Period':'FY0', 'Frq':'FY'})
I believe the number of employees is only available in annual reports through Eikon. But you may want to verify this with Refinitiv Helpdesk, since this is purely a content question not specific to the use of APIs.
