Hi @Luke@MBBS

The story can be created and then modified later on. Please have a look at another example where you see more news that were created before a certain date and then consecutively updated. Basically the function is looking for news stories with certain topic or RIC in a defined time period (column versionCreated) which is an intuitive search from an end user perspective.

ek.get_news_headlines(query='Topic:TAL', date_from='2019-05-22T00:00:01', date_to='2019-05-22T23:59:59')

@Luke@MBBS

Can you try using datetime format:

news = ek.get_news_headlines(query='R:CNH= and Language:LEN', date_from='2019-05-13T00:00:00', date_to='2019-05-13T23:59:59', count=50)

hi @marcin.bunkowski, I tried the below and the first item I get is 22 march 2019

news = ek.get_news_headlines(query='R:CNH= and Language:LEN', date_from='2019-05-13T00:00:00', date_to='2019-05-13T23:59:59', count=50) for i in news.index: print(i, ' ' , news['text'][i])

I got:

@marcin.bunkowski does this mean that a story can be created and get modified eventually? If this is the case, then I'll assume the index of the dataframe will be indexed by the last modified timestamp of the news?

hi @marcin.bunkowski, also, there is a maximum of 100 new headlines we can retrieve?

ok thanks very much @marcin.bunkowski, I'm good with the answer.
