Can't update changes using pyCelonis to Knowledge Model

Question

I've written a basic script to access a knowledge model and want to edit its PQL and update it to the cloud.

space = celonis.studio.get_spaces().find('Value Monitoring')

package = space.get_packages().find('Value Monitoring')

knowledge_model = package.get_knowledge_models().find('Value Monitor-devFlo2')

content = knowledge_model.get_content()

kpis = knowledge_model.get_kpis()

kpiss0].pql

kpi = kpiss0]

kpi.pql = "Test"



knowledge_model.update()  # local to EMS

The ML Workbench has "USE" rights on the knowledge model (no other options available) and "USE and EDIT" rights in the package.

These are the logs:

Why can't I update my changes from the python notebook into the EMS?

Depending on your version of PyCelonis, there are a couple of ways to do it. If you’re using the most recent version, here is the code chunk you’re looking for.

kpi = knowledge_model.create_kpi(
    id_="TEST_KPI",
    display_name="Test KPI",
    pql='COUNT("BSEG"."BELNR")',
)

This is where I got it from - link

@matt.witty13 I can create new KPIs using the provided snippet, however I can’t edit old already existing ones, that is what I am having problems with.

ok I found my mistake. Instead of the knowledge model object one should apply the update function on the KPI object.

Not: knowledge_model.update()

Do: kpi.update()

Ah misunderstood your question! Yes fantastic. The PyCelonis page is very informative.
