Make Object Type Struct Properties Editable

[Flackermann]

We want to store function results calculated by users and which return an array of structs as a Result object to be reviewed later. The List of structs is solely related to that object and may contain a lot of values (key-value pairs for plotting purposes) which is why we would like to avoid full indexing with primary key creation etc. to avoid a too large ontology volume while still having granular permissions on the results for sharing the Results with selected people down the road.

Also, being able to store function results in a list of structs would hopefully speeds up the fetching of the values since they are directly linked to a single primary key.

This is a related issue: Support struct variables in Action Types - Propose an Improvement - Palantir Developer Community

The documentation states that this is currently not possible. Is there maybe a timeline / expectation for this? maybe it is already on the roadmap?

Hi @Flackermann,

Structs in Action Types is on the way and will be available sometime in May. We are finishing up edit migrations for structs before releasing this widely.

Structs in Functions is also on the roadmap and we are committed to unlocking this workflow, but I don’t have an initial timeline estimate.

Hi Henry, this sounds great!
So what you are saying is that we can expect editable structs in may but not yet manipulating them via functions, right? Would it be possible to set the action parameters in a workshop application via functions though / use workshop struct variables as input?
