How to pass a JSON body from an API call to scenario

Srini_E

Hi,

I'm trying to pass a JSON body from an API call to trigger a scenario. The scenario has a step (set global variables) to update global variables, I want to pass the JSON body to the variables field as shown in the screenshot.

Could anyone please help me on this?

Hi @Srini_E
,

Variable expansion is not supported within the "variables" when setting a variable this must be json.

What you can do is use evaluated variables instead by toggling it "on".

1. Using Evaluated variables :  

2. Using Python step ( example below will read project variable and want to set a global variable)

import dataiku

client = dataiku.api_client()

project = dataiku.api_client().get_project(dataiku.default_project_key())
vars = project.get_variables()
#retrieve the variable
var_to_set = vars['standard']['varname']

global_variables = client.get_variables()
global_variables["varname"] = var_to_set
client.set_variables(global_variables)

Thanks
