'None' response when calling Domo SDK to append data into dataset

luisamedinam

I am trying to append data into a dataset I created using the API but I get this error: Failed to import data into Domo: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable. The dataset is created successfully but then I get that error message when trying to append the data into it.

After some troubleshooting I found that the 'None' response is coming from this line of code: response = domo.datasets.data_import(domo_dataset_id, csv_content).

Here is complete block of code where I am trying to append the data.

This sounds like a bug with the Domo APIs / SDK. I'd recommend logging a ticket with support to have them investigate deeper.

This happens when the response back from the API is empty.

You had mentioned that you're attempting to append to your dataset but by default data_import will utilize REPLACE. Have you tried adding, update_method=UpdateMethod.APPEND to your data_import call?

Hello,

Thank you for answering. I added update_method=UpdateMethod.APPEND to the data_import call but I am still getting the same error: Failed to import data into Domo: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable.

Do you maybe have a different suggestion?

Thanks

Does your dataset ID exist in the instance you’ve authenticated to? Does the user you’re authenticated as have access to edit or create datasets?

Yes to both questions. The dataset is created successfully and I even got to check that it appends 7 rows of data before giving me the 'None' response error.
