@Bruce please open a ticket with support@ftrack.com and we'll pick it up from there, Cheers.

Hi @Lorenzo Angeli, pls can you assist us with the setup of Ftrack across multiple locations for one company. We have about 10users all working remotely. Would you be able to assist my self and Dima to do this please?

Hi @MeadowEstrada , the information you are after I believe are under the various TypedContext entities. maybe this action example can help you out. let us know ! Cheers. L.

Managing Gantt task links through the API sounds like a great idea for customization. It seems like the 'dependency' entity you're seeing in the network tab could be related to task links, but if it's not listed in the API schema reference, there might be some limitations.One approach you could try is to reach out to the support team of the Gantt tool or the API provider. They might be able to provide you with some insights or updates on the API capabilities related to task links.If you're interested in exploring more about API usage and development, you can check out https://planfix.com/teams/product/ for resources and discussions. Keep experimenting, and hopefully, you'll find a solution that works for you!

Hi Lorenzo, Thanks so much for the info and insight that you have been giving Dima. We really appreciate it.

Hi @dima, both ftrack-sftp-accessor and ftrack-s3-accessor are api plugins and not server ones, therefore there's no point in trying to have them installed on the self hosted server. In each repository you can find a snippet on how to initialise and use them just through the api: s3-example , sftp-example You can find an example use of the s3-accessor in this user-location plugin for your third point, there's no need of using lambdas , you can just rely on the internal ftrack events to do so, please check the user-location above as reference. hope it helps/ L.

I already tried to use ftrack-s3-accessor as a plugin, but apparently it is outdated, so now plugins are installed through the hook folder. I tried to upload it to the plugins folder but there were no obvious changes. I also tried using ftrack-sftp-accessor, but also to no avail. Maybe there is someone on the forum who can help with installing ftrack-s3-accessor? I've been trying to install it for 2 weeks now, but these are the conclusions: 1. We tried to install ftrack on our server (self-hosted), and try to install ftrask-s3-connect there, but we had difficulties with it. Firstly, if we deploy ftrack on our server, then we will need to maintain it, and if everything goes wrong there, then we ourselves will need to restore the data, etc. In addition, to set up kubernetes, we need to involve a specialist. This means that this option is not very acceptable for us. Also on the forum we never received answer anything about plugin S3 2. I tried to make a plugin and upload it to ftrack connect, but there are no instructions on how to debug plugins, most likely this can be done if ftrack is located on its own server, see point 1 3. I have an idea to try using the ftrack api to connect to ourdomain.ftrackapp.com, make a kind of service, an AWS Lambda Function or locally on a PS/MAC and try to listen to events and try to transfer files to this service.

Hi @dima if you are just starting with the Location system, I'd suggest having a look at our location webinar. If you are after some more technical details have a look at our documentation and our recipes repository. Please start using this as plugin , following the example from the recipes. Hope ithelps. L.

Sorry, I'm new, should I write this code in the plugin and load the plugin using ftrack connect?

Hi there, Could I get an invite please? manuelf@zoovfx.com Thanks!

HI! I'm trying to create a custom attribute expression that pulls some data I keep at the version level to the shot level. Does anyone have any examples on how to write expressions? Thank you!

Hi Is there an update on whether or not we can edit team members logs? It's providing quite an issue for us.

any update?

Hi Team, we are looking to use S3 with Ftrack to store our main assets files on. Has the accessor api been sorted or is there another option for us to use. Our team is all remote based so using Ftrack Studio web based and would like the team to be able to access and store all assets centrally on S3. Please advise the best route.

Hej Henryk, I think this is what you are looking for: https://github.com/ftrackhq/ftrack-web-widget/blob/main/src/ftrackWidget.ts#L86 Hope that helps!

Hej, Is there an js event i can send from my custom widget for ftrack to close the action window again? I have an action wich opens as custom widget to upload an excel file and would like to close the action after. I'm done without the user having to click the 'x' in the actions top corner.

Hi Seymour thanks for flagging this. I have passed it onto the integrations team to take a look. in the future anything that you consider to be a bug report writing into support directly is the best course of action. support@ftrack.com

It seems that Python's "open" command is not available when Maya is launched with Ftrack Connect. Any scripts that need access to files can no longer work. open # Result: <module 'ftrack_connect_pipeline_maya.client.open' from .... ....\\connect\\ftrack-connect-pipeline-maya-1.2.0\\dependencies\\ftrack_connect_pipeline_maya\\client\\open.py'>

Same! Any update? It's really frustrating that it pauses the videos when you are trying to take notes in the player. There needs to be a playlist notes page that can sit outside the media player.

Hi J. you need to submit a support request and we can help you recover that.

Hey there, A client review that had comments and feedback in the review was accidentally deleted. Is there any way to recover this review? Please advise. Thanks!

Is there a job board or something similar if we are looking for vfx producers that are familiar with ftrack?

Is there a way to have a Gantt chart set up that shows percentage of project completion by shot?

Hi! I've created several milestones for different shots. I've linked the shots as incoming to the milestone. When I'm in the project view and I select 'Group by Milestone' - it only shows me the individual milestones. Is there a way to have it have a drop down to see the shots/tasks linked to the milestone? I'm think the milestones need to individual set up within the shot (and if so how to a create milestones for multiple shots)? Thank you!

Thank you! I'll give it a go!
