About dkuGetProjectVariables function in R API

Hi,

 

What is ”variables” at dkuGetProjectVariables function in R API?

I try this function at my code,but I can't get any infomation.

# I'm hoping to get infomation of project or dataset name in project.

 

https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/api/8.0/R/dataiku/reference/dkuGetProjectVariables.html

dkuGetProjectVariables()
$standard

$local

 

Is there something wrong with it?

 

Best regards,

Aya Yoshizawa

Hello,

Do you mean dynamic variables used in project ?

Ex: Syntax for R : var_prj <- dkuCustomVariable("projectKey")

In R recipie (or python), you can refresh dynamic variables used by clicking on 'validate'  button and select variables available there :

Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

I didn't understand project variable well. I thought it was an element such as a dataset. 
I could get return value after I setted project variable.

Can I get the dataset information in my project from the R API like project variables?

Hello @aya ,

Thanks to project variables, you can refresh dynamically a dataset. For example, in a spark sql recipie, instead of this :

Capture.PNG

you can write this :

Capture1.PNG

by specifying the project variable in menu > variables :

globalvar.PNG

There is post about this in the community there : https://community.dataiku.com/t5/Using-Dataiku-DSS/Dynamic-Global-variables-in-DSS/m-p/2279,

other source in reference documentation : https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/scenarios/variables.html

Hope it helps,

edit : good tutorial in dss academy about variables : https://academy.dataiku.com/path/advanced-designer/variables-101/616220
