Hello, any updates? This is quite a necessity for we to share our ftrack with vendors. I can hardly imagine you give a vendor an account which leads to the vendor can access all the things in the project, and you can do nothing about it. And I believe this feature request is also the case for a lot of studios.

Thanks Lorenzo!

Yes please.

Hello, What's the best way to let ftrack to transfer components to specified location(on disk) for a given project, while the other projects remains the default setting? What I could come up with is, using custom publish script, in which the current project will be checked and then the proper location is decided. Not sure if this is the ftrack way though. Cheers. John.

Environment: MacOS 10.15.4 Python 3.8.1 ftrack-python-api 2.0.0

Hi, When I was trying to connect to event hub (ftrack studio on cloud), I got an exception(paths and domain name have been masked): Traceback (most recent call last): File "-*-/threading.py", line 932, in _bootstrap_inner self.run() File "-*-8/threading.py", line 870, in run self._target(*self._args, **self._kwargs) File "-*-/ftrack_api/event/hub.py", line 191, in connect raise ftrack_api.exception.EventHubConnectionError( ftrack_api.exception.EventHubConnectionError: Failed to connect to event server at b'https://-*-.ftrackapp.cn' with error: "b'[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: self signed certificate in certificate chain (_ssl.c:1108)'". But if start session without "auto_connect_event_hub=True" the session can be created. Any clue? Cheers, John

Hi there, To exports text notes this link is sufficient, but any chance with attachments? A report like Client Review report would be perfect. Cheers, John

OK. Thanks @Lorenzo Angeli.

Do I need provide more description?😐

Hello, If some media file are uploaded to ftrack.server as a component of a AssetVersion, will the actual file on the server be deleted after the ftrack component being deleted? Or I have to manage it myself (via event)? Cheers. John

the hard part is to get the project in a dynamic enumerator event handler, as only limited data is provided. When dealing with that specific event, there's no way to get the entity I'm on. I think it makes sense because you are not always query a enumerator upon a entity( possibily by a filter, in which case there's no entity)

Already done that before asking. It's not there.

Hello, Any chance I can get which project the user is operating on in a dynamic enumerator event handler? For example, I want to list all the assetbuilds in a shot attribute, which surely only the assetsbuilds of the shot's project are supposed to be shown. Cheers. John.

Thanks Steve for the detailed description. For now we'll edit the date manually if necessary. But I think it makes sence that gantte schedule view should give the user proper space to do what he wants to do, as it's the user's responsiblity to make the time frame. On the other hand I didn't see this behaviour when it's unscheduled, so it's good to unify the behaviour(to not interfere user's decision) anyway. Cheers.

Hello, As I noticed ftrack will stop me from adjusting the start/due date to a weekend day. How to disable this behaviour? Strangely gantt accept this if I draw the time frame at the first time. Cheers, John.

Thanks. Without this feature it's very insecure for us to cooperate with vendors via ftrack.

Hello, We spared some ftrack accounts with our outsourcing vendor studios, in order to make it easy for them to access feedbacks. Any chance we can prevent these accounts from accessing the project structure/information? At this moment we have already disabled all the permission other than "Can access my tasks", but in the side slide bar one can still access the shot info, tasks related to that shot, and what's worse is that all the versions are exposed under project/versions. Any good way to deal with it? Thanks. John.

I did some googling and end up here. Sorry for bumping this two years old thread up. It's an essential feature request we need to keep names under control as we just cannot count on the human hands to be typing correct names all the time. For now we are going to use the solution @Eric Hermelin provided(thanks) but as @keyframe said considering the UX it would be nicer to have a better solution.

Thanks. I don't think it's mentioned anywhere in the document though.

Hello, any one has any clue?

Thanks Julian! It works now.

Hi, I'm trying to filter assetversion using custom attribute, but got an error: As you can see when I inspect the custom_attributes of a version object it did show me the "downstream" attribute is there. Did I miss something? Also, how to compare a bool value? Am I using it right? Cheers, John

Hi, Johan, for now we are going to use filter + shot view. Thank you.

Hi there, When I tried to generate a reviewable video using version.encode_media('d:/beauty/lgt.beauty.%d.exr [1001-1003]') I got an exception: File "V:\TD\thirdparty_packages\ftrack_api\session.py", line 2288, in encode_media result = self.call([operation]) File "V:\TD\thirdparty_packages\ftrack_api\session.py", line 1654, in call raise ftrack_api.exceptipn.ServerError(error_message) ServerError: Server reported error: AttributeError('NoneType' object has no attribute 'filetype') If I call it using one frame it works. i.e version.encode_media('d:/beauty/lgt.beauty.1001.exr') # good I also tried using ftrack-connect, it uploaded without problem but didn't generate the reviewable component. And I didn't manage to find any relevant log from ftrack log files. By the way it works fine with .mov file. Any thoughts? Thanks. John

Hi Johan, for now a filter would do a similar job, but still not as perfect as a customizable "Group by". What I'm trying to achieve is like a "hierarchy" look but without actually parenting shots to "Episode" objects. By this way we can utilise the StandardStructure while getting rid of episode folder (due to the potentially frequent changes of episode attribute, we don't want to bind a shot to an episode regarding file system). Thanks.
