Bloomberg B-PIPE connection V3
The bpipe
function creates a bpipe
object. The bpipe
object represents a Bloomberg®
B-PIPE® connection.
Other functions connect to different Bloomberg services: Bloomberg Desktop (blp
), and Bloomberg Server (blpsrv
). For details about these
services, see Comparing Bloomberg Connections.
For details about Bloomberg connection requirements, see Data Server Connection Requirements. To ensure a successful Bloomberg connection, perform the required steps before executing
bpipe
. For details, see Installing Bloomberg and Configuring Connections.

Caution:
To refer to a Bloomberg connection in other functions, use the connection object
created by the bpipe
function. Otherwise, using
bpipe
as an input argument opens multiple
Bloomberg connections, causing unexpected behavior and exhausting
memory resources.
