Using Fundamentals in the Pipeline

I'm looking for some examples where Morningstar data is used in the pipeline. So far I have not really been able to get it to work in any of my code. For example, if I wanted to import PE ratio and market cap from Morningstar, how would I do so?

Similarly, I would like to see a working pipeline example using the primary share built in filter.

While searching for something different altogether I inadvertently found an example that makes use of Morningstar data inside a custom factor. Another example of using fundamental data as an input into a custom factor also exists in a sample algo.

I wonder, though, can I use Morningstar data without creating a custom factor? I was hoping for something simple like:
market_cap = morningstar.valuation.market_cap
