Tasks

Tasks in Albert Invent are a way to manage and track your daily work and collaborate with colleagues. There are three types of tasks: Batch Tasks, Property Tasks, and General Tasks.

Import results

This feature enables users to import a .csv file straight into the Data Template of a Property Task allowing them to easily mass enter results without having to type them in manually or copy-paste.

Import results from a CSV file

from albert import Albert
from albert.resources.data_templates import ImportMode

client = Albert.from_client_credentials()

task = client.tasks.import_results(
    task_id="TAS123",
    inventory_id="INV123",
    data_template_id="DT123",
    file_path="path/to/results.csv",
    field_mapping={"comm": "Comments", "Solvent": " Solvent, ppm"},
    mode=ImportMode.CSV,
)
print(task)

Import results using a script

from albert import Albert
from albert.resources.data_templates import ImportMode

client = Albert.from_client_credentials()

task = client.tasks.import_results(
    task_id="TAS123",
    inventory_id="INV123",
    data_template_id="DT123",
    block_id="BLK1",
    file_path="path/to/results.csv",
    mode=ImportMode.SCRIPT,
)

Warning

import_results deletes existing property data for the matching task/block/inventory/lot/interval before writing new values. Use with care if you need to preserve older results.
