import eikon as ek

warnings.filterwarnings("ignore")

ek.set_app_key('xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx')
time_series_interval = 'minute'

df = ek.get_timeseries('LCOc1', start_date='20200101', end_date='20200201', interval=time_series_interval)

The above code produces error:

2021-02-11 16:41:28,356 P[31484] [MainThread 63476] Error with LCOc1: No data available for the requested date range

eikon.eikonError.EikonError: Error code -1 | LCOc1: No data available for the requested date range |

After a little investigation it looks like if the start date and end date are more than a year ago this error is produced. If instead i run:

df = ek.get_timeseries('LCOc1', start_date='20200201', end_date='20200301', interval=time_series_interval)

this seems to work fine!.

Any suggestions how to pull multiple years of data at minute intervals, not just 1 year?

Thanks
