FactSet.SDK.FactSetConcordance 0.22.0

FactSet Concordance client library for .NET

The FactSet Concordance API enables Application Developers and Data Scientists to programmatically discover the FactSet Identifier for a specific Entity or Person based on attributes, such as name, URL, and location.FactSet Identifiers are mapped to industry-standard identifiers, as well as to a comprehensive set of reference data and unique content, to enhance the ability to quickly connect content sets.<p>

Using the submitted attributes, the FactSet Concordance API leverages FactSet’s extensive Entity Master, People, and Symbology databases to return potential candidate matches and a proposed match. The result is a concorded FactSet Identifier that can then be used as input throughout FactSet's expanding catalog of Content using our Content APIs or Standard DataFeeds.</p>

<b>There are two types of workflows supported in the API:</b>

<b>Entity & People Match:</b> The first workflow follows traditional API conventions in that a request is accepted and a response is returned synchronously enabling the concordance of up to 25 names in a single request. The response returns a list of 20 candidates as well as a proposed match.

<b>Entity & People Match - Bulk:</b> The second workflow allows you to input a large list of names within a .CSV file in a single request With this workflow, a task is created for uploading a set of queries. Once the task has completed, the client retrieves the concordance results through the /entity-decisions or /people-decisions endpoint. Note that in the Bulk workflow, only the matches for the records are returned. Candidates are not included.

Once the service has provided a list of concorded FactSet Identifiers, you can then use our Entity Mappings and People Mappings endpoints to further review the universe of mapped identifiers or modify existing records. </p>

namespace Example
{
    public static class GetEntityMappingDeleteForListExample
    {
        public static async Task Main()
        {
            var config = new FactSet.SDK.FactSetConcordance.Client.Configuration();

            // Examples for each supported authentication method are below,
            // choose one that satisfies your use case.

            /* (Preferred) OAuth 2.0: FactSetOAuth2 */
            // See https://github.com/FactSet/enterprise-sdk#oauth-20
            // for information on how to create the app-config.json file
            // See https://github.com/FactSet/enterprise-sdk-utils-dotnet#authentication
            // for more information on using the ConfidentialClient class
            ConfidentialClient confidentialClient = await ConfidentialClient.CreateAsync("/path/to/app-config.json");
            config.OAuth2Client = confidentialClient;

            /* Basic authentication: FactSetApiKey */
            // See https://github.com/FactSet/enterprise-sdk#api-key
            // for information how to create an API key
            // config.Username = "USERNAME-SERIAL";
            // config.Password = "API-KEY";

            var apiInstance = new EntityMappingsApi(config);
            var entityMappingDeleteRequest = new EntityMappingDeleteRequest(); // EntityMappingDeleteRequest | A request to delete entity mappings specified by the client

            try
            {
                // Deletes mapping specified by the client.
                EntityMappingDeleteResponse result = apiInstance.GetEntityMappingDeleteForList(entityMappingDeleteRequest);
                Console.WriteLine(result.ToJson());
            }
            catch (ApiException e)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Exception when calling EntityMappingsApi.GetEntityMappingDeleteForList: " + e.Message );
                Console.WriteLine("Status Code: "+ e.ErrorCode);
                Console.WriteLine(e.StackTrace);
            }
        }
    }
}

Using a Proxy

To use the API client with a HTTP proxy, setup a System.Net.WebProxy

Configuration c = new Configuration();
System.Net.WebProxy webProxy = new System.Net.WebProxy("http://myProxyUrl:80/");
webProxy.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
c.Proxy = webProxy;
