Could not access the media reference in unit tests.

Subject: Issues with Media References in Unit Testing in Palantir

Hello Palantir Community,

I am currently facing a challenge while working on unit testing within Palantir. My testing involves a dataset that includes indirect references to a media set, but I have encountered a limitation I hope to get assistance with.

Problem Description:

I understand that ideally, I could join the original media set to access the media items in this testing dataset. However, in my unit tests, I find there is no option to import or access any media sets. This limitation is preventing me from fully utilizing the media references present in my dataset.

Unit test:


Unit test Input:

Error:

Questions:

  1. Workarounds: Are there any known workarounds to leverage media references within unit tests in Palantir?
  2. Feature Limitations: Is this a known limitation within the Palantir platform, and are there plans for future updates that might address this?
  3. Best Practices: What are the best practices for handling datasets with media references in unit testing scenarios?

I would greatly appreciate any insights, suggestions, or examples from those who have navigated similar challenges. Thank you in advance for your help!

Best,
