Hey Forum!
I’ve been assigned the task to create a script which will take a 360 sequence in Unreal Engine 4, export it and upload it to Shotgun.
I am now currently trying to get my AVI file uploaded to Shotgun in a new Version. I was able to get my script creating a new version, however when I try to upload the file to the Version, it uploads it to “Files” on shotgun and nothing happens to the Version even though I supplied the entity id, as shown in the images below.
The part of my script that creates the version and uploads my AVI file:
def upload():
filepath = folder + "TurntableShots/" + "turntable.avi" #get avi filepath
#Get Currently logged in user
auth = sgtk.authentication.ShotgunAuthenticator()
user = auth.get_user()
status = sg.find("HumanUser",[["login","is",str(user)]], fields=["id"])
userid = str(status).split("\'id\': ",1)[1] #get rid of unused characters
userid = userid[:-2]
data = { 'project': {'type': 'Project','id': int(projectid)}, #Create Version data, for Shotgun API
'code': filename,
'sg_status_list': 'rev',
'user': {'type': 'HumanUser', 'id': int(userid)}}
if(validasset == "true"): #If asset was inputted add to version data
data['entity'] = {'type': 'Asset', 'id': int(assetid)}
if(validdescription == "true"): #If description was inputted add to version data
data['description'] = description
result = sg.create('Version', data) #create version on shotgun
sg.upload("Version", int(result['id']), filepath) #upload video to version
print(filepath + " has been uploaded to Shotgun.")
I have all the correct variables supplied, the “filepath” variable points towards my AVI file.
