@JCrystal I am afraid that is not possible, as there is not equivalent to the RSearch in python. Not too sure what the Start/End params refer to though. Anyway if you have the list of indicators, it would look something like this:

fields = ['ECI_ACT_DT', 'ACT_VAL_NS', 'TR.IndicatorType', 'CTB_LOC1',
          'DSPLY_NME2', 'FCAST_PRD', 'RPT_UNITS', 'ECON_ACT', 'RTR_POLL',      'FCAST_ACRY', 'ECON_PRIOR','TR.IndicatorSource', 
          'TR.IndicatorPeriodicity','TR.InstrumentDescription']

df, e = tr.get_data(['CARSLS=ECI','USMPMP=ECI'], fields=fields, parameters={'SDate':'2018-08-24', 'EDate':'2018-09-30'})
