Unable to specify correct filter to query and return all Project, Episode, and Shot fields together

[omac777]

Using the following variables:

project_name = 'SuperStickman'
episode_name = 'Stic-101'

I want to extract ALL the Project, Episode and Shot fields together.

I tried these two different ways, but they don't display Project, Episode and Shot fields.

sg_shots = sg.find("Shot", [['project.Project.name', 'is', project_name],['episode.Episode.name', 'is', episode_name]], ['code', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.sg_status_list'])

sg_shots = sg.find("Shot", [['project.Project.name', 'is', project_name]], ['code', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.sg_status_list'])

How do I return a query result that returns ALL the Project, Episode and Shot fields together?

Thank you in advance.

Hello, You just need to add ‘episode.Episode.name’ and ‘project.Project.name’ to the list of fields to retrieve, if I understood what you’re after. Something like: ['code', ‘sg_sequence.Sequence.sg_status_list’, ‘episode.Episode.name’, ‘project.Project.name’ ] Hope it helps.

I just tried that:

sg_shots = sg.find("Shot", [['project.Project.name', 'is', project_name]], ['code', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.sg_status_list',  'episode.Episode.name', 'project.Project.name' ])

No fields from Episode are returned. Only fields from Shot and only the Project name.

{'type': 'Shot', 'id': 8341, 'code': 'blahcode', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.sg_status_list': 'blahstatus', 'project.Project.name': 'SuperStickman'}

I tried this as well:

sg_shots = sg.find("Shot", [['project.Project.name', 'is', project_name],['episode.Episode.name', 'is', episode_name]], ['code', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.sg_status_list',  'episode.Episode.name', 'project.Project.name' ] )

But it returns with an error:

shotgun_api3.shotgun.Fault: API read() Shot.episode.Episode.name doesn't exist:
{"path"=>"episode.Episode.name", "relation"=>"is", "values"=>["Stic-101"]}

I guess your Shot was not linked to an Episode. Just add “episode” to the list of fields to return to double check: if empty then the Shot is not linked to an episode. If the episode is set on the Sequence, you can get it with sg_sequence.Sequence.episode, and its field values with sg_sequence.Sequence.episode.Episode.code Check your SG schema for exact field values. Cheers.

Much appreciated. Thanks you will try those.

The shot is not linked to an episode.

[omac777]

BINGO:

sg_shots = sg.find("Shot", [['project.Project.name', 'is', project_name]], ['code', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.sg_status_list',  'sg_sequence.Sequence.episode', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.episode.Episode.code' ] )

Returns:

{'type': 'Shot', 'id': 8345, 'code': 'blahcodes1', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.sg_status_list': 'blahstatus2', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.episode': {'id': 400, 'name': 'Stic-101', 'type': 'Episode'}, 'sg_sequence.Sequence.episode.Episode.code': 'Stic-101'}

Thank you. We've got what we need with this. :)

You're a super-hero monkeydev.

How do I fetch the task name within this query as well?

sg_shots = sg.find("Shot", [['project.Project.name', 'is', project_name]], ['code', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.sg_status_list',  'sg_sequence.Sequence.episode', 'sg_sequence.Sequence.episode.Episode.code', 'task.Task.name' ] )

I tried to fetch it but it's empty as well. Not linked as you mentioned?

This is interesting, is there a way to use this style of syntax to extract specific fields for list relationships too? Say I want to query Assets and also pull out additional fields for their related shots, and sequences.

Say I make this query: sg.find_one('Asset', [['code', 'is', 'sample_asset']], ["id", "code", "sg_status_list", "tasks", "shots"])

{
    "type": "Asset",
    "id": 1445,
    "code": "sample_asset",
    "sg_status_list": "wtg",
    "tasks": [
        {"id": 5868, "name": "Concept", "type": "Task"},
        {"id": 5869, "name": "Model", "type": "Task"},
    ],
    "shots": [
        {"id": 1211, "name": "sample_shot_1", "type": "Shot"},
        {"id": 1207, "name": "sample_shot_2", "type": "Shot"},
    ]
}

But I'd like to include additional fields in the Task and Shot lists. Is there a way to do that without having to make additional API calls specifically for Task and Shot?

@josh-mission I don't believe that is possible for multi-entity fields. see: https://community.shotgridsoftware.com/t/using-linked-fields-aka-bubbled-fields-in-api-requests/8697
