Hi @anbezhilasokan.frm

The sample code you tried to follow, it happens that the code expects you to store "appkey" in eikon.cfg

However, this is not necessary at all.

You can directly call the ek.set_app_key('<a_valid_appkey'>) with the value of your appkey.

Hi @anbezhilasokan.frm

Eikon Data API does not have eikon.cfg file.

Can you please clarify what you are trying to achieve?

What is this eikon.cfg about?

What sample code you are testing?

i run this code i was getting empty . []

ek.set_app_key(cfg['eikon']['app_id']) #set_app_id function being deprecated

Please refer to an answer in this thread.

From my testing, the eikon.cfg should have the following entries:

[eikon]
app_id = <appkey>

To generate an application key, please refer to the Eikon Data API Quick Start.
