login error - how does RFA authentication work?

[ZmeiGorynych]

Hi,

when trying to run the example on your front page, I'm getting an authentication error (using my real login name of course, here replaced by "my_real_login_name@my_company.com":

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Exception                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-3-bcda0141cc71> in <module>()
      4 p.acquireSession("Session1")
      5 p.createOMMConsumer()
----> 6 p.login()
      7 p.directoryRequest()
      8 p.dictionaryRequest()

Exception: [Pyrfa::login] Login failed. Please check data permission. (username: my_real_login_name@my_company.com)

The pyrfa.cfg is below.

How does the RFA authentication work, actually? Do I need to register my IP somehow, or enter my password in the cfg file, or have a Reuters UI running?

Thanks a lot!

Hi there, PyRFA is meant to connect to TREP-RT servers e.g. ADH, ADS, ATS or Elektron for high-speed real-time data. The username here is set at DACS. The username you used looks like an Eikon login. Eikon is a client terminal. It gets the data from TREP the same way PyRFA gets the data from. If you need to use PyRFA to get the data, please contact Thomson Reuters for “API access” they will then assign a username for you along with the port and IP address.
