Setting parameters via the Web

Setting Web API values

There are several ways to set variable values in the Web API, but one of the the simplest is to assign values in a JSON structure:

data = {
...
"SummaryAttributionReport"      : "true",
...
}

The format is very similar to the settings for a configuration file.

FIA is then run remotely with a call to RunJson (data, username, password) and the Python requests library. For more on this topic, please refer to 'Running FIA via the Web API'.
