Why I am unable to search some RIC from PermID.org?

I find that I am unable to search for some RIC. e.g. LP68378811 which is a fund.

    Refer to Open PermID FAQ page in the question "What kinds of entities are supported?", its coverage doesn't include fund.

    Moreover, when I used other tools, such DataScope Select or AppStudio - Web SDK, LP68378811 can't be mapped to other instrument types, except LipperID. The following is the output from the Symbology Plugin in AppStudio - Web SDK.

    {
    "LipperIDs": [
    "68378811"
    ],
    "RICs": [
    "LP68378811"
    ],
    "bestMatch": {
    "RIC": "LP68378811",
    "lipperID": "68378811"
    },
    "symbol": "LP68378811"
    }

    I think that this is why you are unable to search this RIC from PermID.org.

    Thanks. That means I was trying to search a non-equity quote/RIC.

    I don't quite get your point when you mention about DataScope Select and App Studio.

    This RIC LP68378811 do have a permID of 21591485256. I get it by typing "LP68378811 META" in Eikon.
