Hello friends!
I would like to ask if it possible to make a scheduled downloading of exact data via LSEG-API, programmed by python script?
Is it possible to make a script running at the time, when session is closed?
Best regards,
Hi @FinanceDebtSodru ,
This use case is demonstrated in this article Automating Python Scripts with the Data Library Using Windows Task Scheduler | Developer Community. I hope this helps and please let me know in case you have any further questions.

It depends on the product you are licensing.
If you are using Workspace, the Workspace application must be running and signed in before you run the script because the Data Library retrieves data through the active desktop session. You can refer to the article mentioned by my colleague for more details.
However, if you are using a Data Platform session, the library can retrieve data directly from the cloud-based Data Platform. In this case, the Workspace desktop application does not need to be running.
