Notes

To create a subscription with prompts, you need to provide the report instance ID with answered prompts for the content. Example: >>>contents=Content( >>> id=”<report_id>”, >>> type=Content.Type.REPORT, >>> personalization=Content.Properties( >>> format_type=Content.Properties.FormatType.PDF, >>> prompt=Content.Properties.Prompt( >>> enabled=True, >>> instance_id=”<instance_id>”, >>> ), >>> ), >>>)

to_dataframe()

Converts all properties of the object to a dataframe.

Returns:

A DataFrame object containing object properties.

Return type:

DataFrame

to_dict(camel_case=True)

Converts an object to a dictionary excluding object’s private properties. When converting the object to a dictionary, the object’s attributes become the dictionary’s keys and are in camel case by default Attribute values stored as objects are automatically converted to non-/ primitive data structures.

Parameters:

camel_case (bool, optional) – Set to True if attribute names should be converted from snake case to camel case. Defaults to True.

Returns:

A dictionary representation of object’s attributes and values.

By default, the dictionary keys are in camel case.

dict

update_properties()

After the process of update has finished, self._altered_properties is cleared. For this method to work properly, you must override the _alter_properties() method in a subclass.

Raises:

requests.HTTPError – If I-Server raises exception

Return type:

None
