How to find symbols of specific item

I am trying to get Symbols (such as Mnemonic, RIC, and/or ISIN) of items that I am specifically searching for with keywords (e.g. Apple, Amazon, Google, etc) with Datastream Python API. Is there any way to get such information as a dataframe?

Also, in the above question, I am looking for that specific item. But, if search gives more results (such as Apple Credit, Apple Rush when I search for Apple), is there also a way to get all these items and their info as dataframe (as in DFO Navigator result format)?

You can use the DS.SYMBOLLOOKUP data type to find symbols.

The python code looks like:

df = ds.get_data(tickers="Apple", fields=["DS.SYMBOLLOOKUP"], kind=0)
df

The result is:
