Validate RIC prior to registerClient with Elektron API

I would like to validate that an RIC is valid prior to calling the registerClient method on it. Is there an interface for validating an RIC in the Java Elektron SDK?

Hi @bill.harding, There is no specific mechanism for validation of an instrument identifier, except for actually subscribing to it and checking the returned status code.

If the requirement is to validate very large datasets like Security Master etc, then other services like TickHistory, which provide data for bulk download through RESTful API can be used.
