Hello,

I need to call a previous step of the scenario in a Python custom step, is it possible please?

I'm using version 9.01 of dataiku.

Thanks in advance,

Hi @Yasmine ,

You can run a step in a scenario but not directly by referencing the scenario name/step name.

You create a step definition as suggested here:

Another approach is to split this into multiple scenarios and call the scenario from your python code instead.

Thanks,
