I am developing a Python App for my company. As there is Eikon API Proxy which requires the Desktop app to be signed in can I go around that and run the python script while the account is being used on another PC?
For a deeper look into our Eikon Data API, look into:

Eikon API Proxy is only available for Mac.
It requires your individual login as it will terminate other active sessions upon logging in.
You cannot use it when the account is being used on another PC.
That means that there is no way to run the Python app while the account is being used on another PC?
Correct - each machine running a code/scripts consuming data from Eikon requires an Eikon install and licence.
An alternative could be to look at our Refinitiv Data Platform - a considerable coverage of the data available in Eikon is also available on the Platform. If the data you are consuming is available on the platform then you would not need an Eikon install on the developer PC. Please discuss with your Refinitv Account team for further details.
