Retrieve the Source information tab from Data table properties

Hi team,

It would be very useful to have the ability to retrieve all information found in the Source Information tab of the Data table properties.
Currently, we can only retrieve parts of that information using the GenerateSourceView method from the DataTable class as explained in this article: https://community.spotfire.com/articles/spotfire/how-to-use-ironpython-in-spotfire-to-get-the-datatable-source-information/.


But since this would not return all we can see in that Source Information tab, it would be a great addition to retrieve the complete list of informations from that Source Information tab.

Kind regards,

David Boot-Olazabal

      Hi David, it would be really helpful if you could specify in detail what information you are missing in the API,

      Thanks for this idea David.
      May I ask for what do you use the source information ?
