Azure Blob

Hi @SourabhJ
,

When setting up a connection, for instance, to an Azure Blob container, you can add a default path (where files from DSS are written). Unfortunately, you cannot directly read from your Azure blob with DSS Python APIs. As a workaround, you can create a Managed Folder pointing to your Azure blob container and use DSS Python APIs to list the contents.

From within DSS:

import dataiku
client = dataiku.api_client()
# Get a handle to the Dataiku project, must use Project Key, take it from Project Home URL, must be all in uppercase
project = client.get_project("PROJECT_KEY")
folder = dataiku.Folder("insert_folder_ID_or_name")
contents = folder.list_paths_in_partition()

Outside DSS:

import dataikuapi

# Set Dataiku URL and API Key
host = "https://your_dss_URL"
apiKey = "paste your API here"

# Create API client
client = dataikuapi.DSSClient(host, apiKey)

# Ignore SSL checks as these may fail without access to root CA certs
client._session.verify = False

# Get a handle to the Dataiku project, must use Project Key, take it from Project Home URL, must be all in uppercase
project = client.get_project("PROJECT_KEY")

# Get a handle to the managed folder, must use Folder ID, take it from URL when browsing the folder in Dataiku. Case sensitive!
managedfolder = project.get_managed_folder("folder_id")

#Lists paths in folder
contents = managedfolder.list_contents()

I hope this helps!

Thanks,

Jordan
