How can we pull a list of options contracts related to an index?

Is it possible to pull in related options/futures contracts for a specific index using the Eikon API? The equivalent of this in Eikon would be to pull up an index overview page and go to the Derivatives tab. The Index I am currently looking at is .HSCE and some of the options for this index include:

'HCEI09800G9.HF',
'HCEI09800H9.HF',
'HCEI09800I9.HF',
'HCEI09800J9.HF',
'HCEI09800L9.HF

How can a full list be pulled via the Eikon Data API?

Thanks

You can retrieve the options chain using

ek.get_data('0#HCEI*.HF',['DSPLY_NAME'])
