multiple overrides with Bloomberg API

It seems Bloomberg API can only override with same overridevalues for a list of bonds. for instance, to override Yield with Price, I can only use the SAME price value for a list of different bonds. My problem is: how to override Yield with different Price values for EACH different bonds. Is it possible?

In general (and not only for bonds), when using overrides, you are passing the same set of overrides for all the securities/dates of the request. If you want to use a different set of overrides for different securities you need to send multiple requests, each with different overrides. Note that the overrides are added directly to the request object.

When I encountered a similar issue I grouped the securities I was requesting data for by the overrides. I sent one request for each distinct set of overrides.
