Datastream Database

Postby CNR15 » Tue Nov 29, 2022 5:21 am

Hi,

I have been trying to upload data from Datastream using the File>Open>Database option (giving Database Specification option box) but there is no option for Datastream/Eikon/Refinitiv on the drop-down menu. Has this option been removed? I amusing EViews 12

Thanks!

You will need to download and install a component from Refinitiv (the makers of Datastream) for Datastream to appear in the list.

See https://developers.refinitiv.com/content/dam/devportal/api-families/eikon/datastream-web-service/documentation/manuals-and-guides/datastream-refinitiv-dsws-eviews.pdf for full instructions on how to install and use.
