Parameters translation from Excel
Problem description
How can I use parameters not in the overrides, like "fill=p" and "days=a" in excel: =bdp("ISIN Code","PX_LAST","fill=p","days=a")?
This pdblp
library wraps the Bloomberg blpapi
library, which is written and maintained by Bloomberg. The blpapi
library and the Excel Bloomberg library do not use the same backend, and thus the parameters they take in are not the same. From translation from Excel to blpapi
(and also by association pdblp
) I would either discuss with Bloomberg (HELP HELP
in the terminal) or read the blpapi
