Specify wanted dataset permids/codes using the v3 api?

Hi,

It is possible to specify a wanted dataset permids/codes when using dropboxes, e.g.:

        code = "20220328134440467-1208716"
        dset = self.transaction.createNewDataSet(self.dstype, code)

Is the same possible using the v3 api? An example would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
Lars

  • It is not possible. And it is not planned to be added.
  • DataSets are on the odd position that are the only entity on the system with only permId.
  • I would like to suggest to assign a $NAME property and use that for a user defined name/id.

OK, thanks for the clarification.
