Runs custom Python code. Useful for logic not covered by existing blocks. Python code block

​
Overview

The Python code block allows you to write Python code to extend your blueprint’s functionality.

​
Available variables and libraries

Python code block can access the following global variables and libraries:

​
Return values from the Python code block

To return a value from a Python code block and store it in the result execution environment variable, you must use the set_output function. Anything that runs in the block but is not returned in the set_output function does not get passed to the next block.

​
Example: Calculate the average of a list of numbers and return the result

The example python code below shows how to return a value from the Python code block. It calculates the average of a list of numbers and returns the result the next block by using the set_output function. The following Set state block stores the result in the final_result state variable to display in the UI. 
def calculate_mean(numbers):
    return sum(numbers) / len(numbers)

average = calculate_mean(state["numbers"])
set_output(average)
