Bloomberg User Guide & Support
Complete guide to connecting local Bloomberg Desktop API (BLPAPI), configuring streaming quotes, quote details, field snapshots, sparkline charts, watchlists, yellow keyboard keys, and 46 Terminal macros on Windows.
Requires an active, locally installed Bloomberg Terminal on Windows 10/11 x64. The bundled bridge connects directly to the Desktop API with zero cloud quote servers.
On Stream Deck +, rotate dials to scroll watchlist securities, push to switch metrics or chart timeframes (1D, 5D, 1M, 1Y), and tap the touchstrip to open the security in Terminal.
Trigger functions (WEI, TOP, DES, HP, GP, ECO) without typing, and emulate physical Bloomberg keyboard sector keys (EQUITY, GOVT, CORP) with authentic colors.
