I'm trying to query data for about 500 RICs, but here are the first 5: 'A.N', 'AABA.OQ^J19', 'AAL.OQ', 'AAP.N', 'AAPL.OQ'

if i use this formula:

ld.get_history(
universe=ok_tickers,
fields=['TR.FreeFloat'],
start=s, end=e,
interval="1D"
),

the query times out as it takes too long to queryhence i am trying to look for an alternative using historical_pricing.summaries.Definition(), but i'm not sure how to find the fiels

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    Yes, requests for a lot of data from the fundamental and reference endpoints (TR.xxx fields) may time out.

    You may increase the http.request-timeout value via the configuration file (ld-data.config.json) or coding. For example: The configuration is:

    {
    
    "http": {       
    
        "request-timeout": 60
    
    },
    
    "logs": {
    
...
    
    }
    
...
    
}

    The sample code is:

    ld.get_config()["http.request-timeout"] = 60

    Otherwise, you may split it to multiple requests.

    The historical_pricing.summaries.Definition endpoint is used to retrieve real-time historical data. You can ignore the fields parameter to retrieve all available fields
