How to retrieve each feauture found in the data item browser functionality?

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hello, I'm new to the lseg data library. I'm trying to retrieve information with get_history() but have a hard time finding all possible field values. When I search for input CF_CLOSE which can be found for RIC: "0#.SPX" in the data item browser functionality I get error.

When I make query for "TR.PE" field which is not in the data item browser, like in the following example, I do get data.

df1 = ld.get_history( universe=["0#.SPX"], fields=["TR.PE"], interval="1D", start="2021-10-01", end="2021-10-03",)df1

How can I know which function allows me to retrieve each parameter found in the data item browser functionality and where can I found the correct codes for the fields?

Thanks

df1
