Search for a company's RIC by its name in PYTHON on Mac

Is there a way to search for a company's RIC by its name in Python on Mac?
So that the code prompts the user to input the name of a company and then by this name searches for a RIC to use it for further data extraction about a stock.

There are no searching capabilities in the Python API yet, so the workflow that you described is not possible
