Eikon get_timeseries migration to rd.get_history: Fields to specify?

I am migrating from Eikon Python API to Workspace Python API, and the Eikon call to get_timeseries is now get_history. get_timeseries used to return Date,HIGH,CLOSE,LOW,OPEN,COUNT,VOLUME by default for bar type data.

Is the below call equivalent:

df = rd.get_history(universe = [Symbol_T], end = Date_T, fields=["HIGH_1","TRDPRC_1","LOW_1","OPEN_PRC","ACVOL_UNS"], interval = 'daily')

Are there some examples somewhere for “get_history”?

Where do I find a listing of the various fields: ["HIGH_1","TRDPRC_1","LOW_1","OPEN_PRC","ACVOL_UNS"] along with others and their explanations?
