Query : Do we have any possible workaround / solution that would allow the client to use Visual Studio without relying on an active Workspace session?

As per client : "The provided code attached below is working fine in CODEBOOK within Workspace and Visual Studio Code. However, for the Visual Studio Code, Workspace must be already running or open on clients' end for it to work which client confirmed, this is not the setup they were expecting.

As they need the retrieval to work through the explicit platform session/authentication script without depending on an already open/running Workspace session.

Script provided :

import refinitiv.data as ld

ld.open_session()

df = ld.get_data(
universe = ['/1CAU75F26','ENEI10000F6.MI','/ENEI5W114cE6.EX'],
fields = ['TR.AssetCategory','TR.RIC','UNDERLYING','STOCK_RIC']
)

display(df)

Please note that the only difference is client using the LSEG Library"

Can you please advise?

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Workspace users can use the LSEG Data Library for Python to retrieve data through the running LSEG Workspace application.

To retrieve data without running the LSEG Workspace, the client needs to have an account for the Data Platform product. Please contact the client's LSEG account team or sales team regarding this product.
