accessing custom attributes which are only defined in project

[cschnell 2]

Hi,

I have defined some custom attributes for a specific project, but with the python_api, only the "all-project" attributes are available.

e.g.

shot = session.create("Shot", {"name":"Foo", "parent":sequence......})

print shot["custom_attributes"].keys()

gives me only the attributes marked for "all projects".

If I make my  attribute available for all projects, everything is working fine and my attribute is also listed.

I do not want to hold all attributes global, so how can I access the attributes which are only defined in a specific project?

 

Thanks for your help

Hi and welcome to the forum!

I suspect that the issue is that the shot is not yet committed. This is a current limitation, but does it work for you if you commit it using session.commit before listing the custom attributes?

Hi!

Thank you very much. Once committed, the custom attributes are available.

So, I can take this limitation into account and everything works fine for me now.

Thank you very much for your quick help!!
