The ek.get_timeseries method supports the following fields: 'TIMESTAMP', 'VALUE', 'VOLUME', 'HIGH', 'LOW', 'OPEN', 'CLOSE', 'COUNT'. For more information, please refer to Eikon Data APIs for Python - Reference Guide.

To get historical open interest, you can use the ek.get_data method.

df, e = ek.get_data('TYH8^1', ['TR.OPENINTEREST.Date', 'TR.OPENINTEREST'], {'SDate':'2018-01-01','EDate':'2018-04-01'})

is there a way to use the get_data method without returning a tuple?
