If you have added items to the index with the item field, you can retrieve them via get():

# IDs of items to retrieve
ids = ["item_20, item_11"]
include = ["contents", "metadata"]

# Retrieve items from the encrypted index
item = index.get(ids, include)

print(item)
# Example item
# [{"id": "item_20", "contents": "Hello, World!", "metadata": {"type": "txt"}},
#  {"id": "item_11", "contents": "Hello, Cyborg!", "metadata": {"type": "md"}}]
