Home Story Name in Python

Arash
Contributor

Hello,

 

I noticed that the "Home Story Name" property in the General category is not accessible directly in Python, so I was wondering if there is something that I'm missing here. 

 

Could anyone please provide a sample code that extract "General_HomeStoryName" information of each element in python?

 

Thanks,

Arash

Arash, all I was trying to say was that for such a piece of information a Property would be better than creating new Classification entries. I believe Gerry gave you the possible options in his first answer. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with Python so I can not comment on that part, only on the part whether such info should be stored as a Property or as a Classification. (A Property is a single piece of info about an element, while a Classification determines which Properties will be available for an element, so the purposes of the two are different.)
