Access Filter Updating through API

Has anyone else had problems trying to update users’ Access Filters through the API? Every now and then I get an error message saying “access filter for field… already exists”. I haven’t been able to figure out a pattern of when it fails - It seems totally random. The same update will fail once then succeed when I re-run it. I can use a try-except workaround, but I’m feeling like I’m missing something.


Anyone have similar experience?

Hi Jon,


That result does sound interesting, especially since it throws an error one time but then works the next. Is there any way you could share your code so we can try to take a look? If it’s better, you can visit us at help.looker.com, either way works.

To anyone else, feel free to add a reply if so!
