Company Filing History

Hi,

I am trying to access company filing history by RDP API but have been unable to use the filing example in the download section of the tutorial. Would you be so kind to help developing a snippet of code which:

1. Scans the corporate filing history for a given security, and a given time-period;

2. Scans a particular filing converting it into a string


We can use the example of PermID: '4295912121' if that makes it easier.


Thank you!

@Giorgio Cozzolino,

I don't know what sample you are using - but it is not the one that we provide. Please download the samples from dev portal and try to run the filings sample without modifying. It should result in downloading the file. The output from the sample should be:

>>> python filings.py
Performing a document search using document-text...
Existing token read from: token.txt

We don't have filings implemented in the rdp library. It is scheduled for sometime next year.

Hi @Giorgio Cozzolino ,

What is the error message when you try to use the filing API sample. Do you have the right permissions to use the API?

I just tried the sample and it works.

Hi @Gurpreet,

Unfortunately I don't find the example very user friendly so I wouldn't even know where to start with it. I have used the rdp library on Python before so I don't believe it's a permission issue? Nevertheless there is a library I have not used in the past, namely rdpToken. I am using a simple Jupyter notebook.

In any case, would you please be so kind in posting the code here for the specific security? Something which works in a Jupyter environment. it would save quite a lot of time.

Thanks!

Hi @Giorgio Cozzolino,

I would recommend that you follow all the steps in the quick start guide here. Once you have, then run the filings sample using the following command:

python filings.py

Let me know if there is an issue running it like this. The above command will firstly get a token which is required for the filings API, and as a second step, get the filings data.

Currently we don't have a filings object in the RDP library.

Hi @Gurpreet

I have tried running the filings.py file and unfortunately I don't seem to be able to receive a response from the server. All username, password and keys are correct.

TypeError: string indices must be integers


The issue is that

jsonFullResp

is coming back as an empty string. Not sure what steps to take from here.

Is there not an easier way to access this information via any library in:

rdp.search

Thanks!
