Install instructions for the Bloomberg API with Anaconda Jupyter

Bloomberg API with Python

Requirements

  • Windows 10 x64.
  • Latest version of Anaconda.

Setting up the environment

VSBuildTools

After installing VS Build Tools, you should update your anaconda packages. Use the following code on your Anaconda Powershell Prompt (run it with admin privileges):

Anaconda Latest: packages in the latest release of Anaconda (currently 4.4), without versions. This can be used to update all (and only) the packages that are found in Anaconda to the latest available version, since (you may be surprised to learn) the command `conda update anaconda` will not do this for you (see explanation below).
