in Workflows

Hi Team,

How do I access the 'tags' variable from the Get Metadata function output in Workflows. The option isn't included in the children:

however in code engine this is available:

Any thoughts please let me know.

    That's not supported in that package in the current implementation. You can create an idea in the Ideas Exchange if that's something you would like added.

    If you want to instead create your own Code Engine function to achieve that, you can using the following: 

    const codeengine = require('codeengine')
 
async function getTags(datasetId) {
  const api = `/api/data/v3/datasources/${datasetId}`;
  const response = await codeengine.sendRequest("GET", api);
  console.log(response);
  let array = JSON.parse(response.tags);
  return array;
}

    Thanks @brycec - ironically I started with code engine before discovering the functions. I'll write an idea.

    Commenting back here @brycec . I'm getting a None response for the https://developer.domo.com/portal/35115c5c48927-datasets-api#createdatasettag function.

    It works, but if it doesn't return a Status there's no robust way of knowing when it doesn't work - for example when a dataset has been deleted, it will still go through despite the dataset no longer existing.

    The documentation says there is a response, so is this a bug?

      try:
    test = update_response.get('HTTP/1.1','[]')
  except Exception as e:
    return f"That didn't work: {e}"

ยป "That didn't work: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get'"
