Failure of retrieving certain RIC code data by using RFA.NET

I tried to retrieve the data for RIC: DE6MT=RR by our program using RFA.NET (RFA7_NET100)

But it return the error as below:


2021/08/11 13:21:23.764 TRACE <- Received MMT_MARKET_PRICE Status

serviceName : ELEKTRON_DD

symbolName : dDE6MT=RRd

streamState : Closed

dataState : Suspect

statusCode : NotFound

statusText : The record could not be found


But it is ok when we are using Eikon terminal.

To summarize the answers spread over a number of posts on this thread, TS1 is a legacy system providing timeseries data. Refinitiv strongly recommends that is it not used in any new applications you develop. There are several alternatives including for example the RDP Historical Pricing API. If you must use TS1 in your application, then instead of DE6MT=RR RIC, which does not exist on TS1, you could use EU6MT=RR, which does exist on TS1.

Hi @sanniel

Looking at the status msg above, you are trying to subscribe to dDE6MT=RRd - which is not a valid RIC - but DE6MT=RR is a valid RIC?

Hi umer.nalla ,

I actually try to get RIC code DE6MT=RR, which I can retrieve by other API like Excel Eikon API.

But When I try to retrieve it from RFA.NET, it failed. And return the error as above.

It is the DLL we used.

Hi @sanniel

Unfortunately, the statusmsg indicates the server is receiving a request for dDE6MT=RRd - so this would suggest there is something not right with the code you are using?

Is it a standard RFA.NET example that we supply or is it your own code?

Please share the snippet of the code where you set the RIC code in the request msg. If passing in a variable, have you tried hardcoding the RIC code - just for testing purposes?

Hi,

It is ok when we pass other RIC code: EUR6MFSR=

And there are also "d" prefix and suffix from the log.

We use a standard RFA.NET you supply.

Hi @sanniel

The above to RICs you mention dEUR6MFSR=d and dEUR6MFSR=d1 are both valid RICS, but unfortunately dDE6MT=RRd is not recognised as a valid RIC.

It is not RFA.NET returning the error, it is the server and our Real-time feed reporting that it is not a valid RIC and RFA.NET is merely passing on that information.

I have raised a Content-type Ticket with the Data Helpdesk - who may be able to advise which RIC you can use to obtain the TS1 data you require.

They should be in touch soon

Hi @sanniel

I should also point out that RFA.NET 7.4 is no longer supported. The current version is 8.2.1.L1

NOTE: The version is NOT related to the issue you reported above. However, you should upgrade as soon as possible. If you ever face any production issues caused by a bug in RFA.NET, the bug fix would only be provided for the latest release and you may lose time upgrading from RFA 7 to 8.x at a critical time.

When we try RIC code "JP6MT=RR". The program throws exception.

Hi @sanniel

I was able to request JP6MT=RR with the StarterConsumer_TS1 example from RFANET v8.2.1.L1

It could be a bug or issue with the older unsupported version you are using. If you can recreate the same issue with a supported version of RFA.NET then we can report it to the Developer Support team for further investigation.

@umer.nalla

In additions, please help to ask Data Helpdesk to advise the following RIC codes:

EUROSTR=,DE1MT=RR,DE3MT=RR,DE6MT=RR,JP6MT=RR


Many thanks.

Hi @sanniel

You can raise the ticket using the link I provided earlier or wait till they respond with the initial ticket query and then ask for the additional information.

Hi @sanniel

I should also just point out that RFA is an older API and TS1 is an older interface.

You can also access historical data using our newer RDP Historial Pricing API - which uses a HTTP RESTful interface where the data is returned in JSON format - much easier to use.

As an example, I ran a historical-pricing/v1/views/interday-summaries API query for DE6MT=RR over a 20 day period and I got the attached result

DE6MT=RR.txt

If you want more information on the RDP Historical Pricing APIs please speak to your Refinitiv Account representative or your internal Market Data team.
