Obtaining a large number of LEIs from using PermID

I used OpenPermID's match function to match names to PermIDs in bulk, and I would also like to know the associated LEIs if possible. However from the documentation it seems the only available way to obtain it is by using the lookup function and checking 'tr-org:hasLEI', which would require a separate request for every PermID, and is limited to a quota of 5000 per day. Is there a better alternative to this, or is it possible to increase the quota?

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    You can find LEIs from PermIDs by using LSEG Data Library for Python.

    The code looks like this:

    df = ld.get_data(universe=['4295904307','4295907168','4295905494'],
    fields = ['TR.LegalEntityIdentifier']
    )
    df

    However, you need to have a Workspace's account or Data Platform's account. For more information, please contact your local LSEG representative via Contact Us.
