From bond ticker to issuer information with Python

Hello! I have a list of bond tickers, e.g. LHNLF , UBSNL and I am trying to download sectors of activity of the issuers from the field TR.TRBCActivity. How can I do that? Is there a specific parameter I need to set to get this working? Many thanks!

    From my finding, Eikon Data APIs can't retrieve data by using these tickers because the get_symbology method can't convert these tickers to RICs.

    Therefore, you need to directly use RICs in order to get the data.

    I have used Eikon Excel to find RICs for those tickers.
