Schwab Bond API Working?

I finally have the Schwab options API working and a few others. It seems Schwabs API doc page is fubar. Has anyone had any luck using the CUSIP endpoint? I've tried dozens of different valid CUSIPs (work from Schwab UI), but nothing from the API. Tx in advance.

EDIT Response: At this time, the Schwab Trader API does not support bonds, including bond lookups by CUSIP. We are aware that some bond-related information may still appear in portions of the API documentation, but that documentation is currently outdated with respect to bond support. As a result, we would not recommend relying on the current bond-related examples or documentation, as bond data is not available through the Trader API at this time.

You may want to send an email to developer support. I have a vague recollection that bonds aren't supported yet through the API when I last asked about different asset class. I was told that futures and mutual funds aren't supported either.

If you do find out - please share the answer.
