Expose Lists to the Spotfire API

Currently, Spotfire lists (as seen in the Lists panel) are not accessible via the IronPython API. This limits our ability to automate workflows that rely on lists, such as creating lists from specific column values and using list comparison tools.

Use Case:

  • Automatically populate lists with compounds (or other items) based on column values.

  • Ensure the lists persist even when the underlying data sources are replaced.

  • Enable automated intersection and comparison between lists using list logic.

Benefit:
Exposing lists through the API would allow users to automate list creation and comparison, saving time and reducing manual steps while improving reproducibility.
