In Tick History API, how to get the Reference Usage?

sam.garcia

Hoping for your assistance please, we would need help in getting the API Code for Reference Usage.

We have checked the below but there was no sample code to follow.

selectapi.datascope.refinitiv.com/RestApi.Help/Context/Operation?ctx=Usage&opn=GetExtractionUsageInstrumentSummary#

In the website platform, it is here:

Reference Usage by Company - DataScope Select

Thank you for reaching out to us.

You can send a HTTP POST request to https://selectapi.datascope.refinitiv.com/RestApi/v1/Usage/GetExtractionUsageInstrumentSummary. The payload looks like this:

{

    "ExtractionUsageCriteria": {

        "StartDateTime": "2025-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",

        "EndDateTime": "2025-12-01T00:00:00.000Z"

    }

}

The Python code is:

import requests

import json


url = "https://selectapi.datascope.refinitiv.com/RestApi/v1/Usage/GetExtractionUsageInstrumentSummary"


payload = json.dumps({

  "ExtractionUsageCriteria": {

    "StartDateTime": "2025-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",

    "EndDateTime": "2025-12-01T00:00:00.000Z"

  }

})

headers = {

  'Prefer': 'respond-async',

  'Content-Type': 'application/json',

  'Authorization': 'Token <token>'

}


response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload)


print(response.text)
