how to get runner.RunnerName, NOT runner.selectionId?

[fr3nzy1290]

so selectionId with python would be runner.selection_id which works, but runner.runner_name, runner.name don't return anything. I want to get the name of the runner, I don't care about the id. Surely there must be an option to view this?

I assume you are looking in the streaming market definition? Runner name is only present in historic data, you need to make a market catalogue request to get the name in live data.
