App Attachments
App attachments are read-only from the Python model. They can be used as an alternative to model resources to provide a source of input data.
The advantage they have over model resources is that an app attachment can be updated via the web client, whereas model resources are final once the app has been created. First declare a variable that contains the file name:
DATAFILE = "shares.csv"After this call, use the built-in python function to read the csv file, then index the file into an array. For example:
self.Shares = pd.read_csv(InsightApp.DATAFILE, index_col=['ShareIds'], squeeze=True) self.ShareIds = self.Shares.index
