Custom variables type always string ?

dmajard

Hi,

I have defined some global variables in a flow, and these are integers, lists and stings. Yet when I use dataiku.get_custom_variables() in python everything is a string.

Doesn't JSON support these types?



Cheers,

Hi,

To do what you want, you can use the argument "typed" as shown below:

dataiku.get_custom_variables(typed = True)

Hope it helps,
