How to filter Python Toolbox parameter for Tables

JohnDye

Trying to set a filter on a Python toolbox parameter to only allow tables to be input.

Currently doing this:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; param0 <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> arcpy<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Parameter<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; displayName<SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"Table"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; name<SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"in_Table"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; datatype<SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"GPTableView"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; parameterType<SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"Required"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; direction<SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"Input"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; param0<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>filter<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>list <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> <SPAN class="punctuation token">[</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"Table"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">]</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

However, the filter doesn't seem to work.

Thanks guys. I figured this was probably something that was implemented but wanted to check with the SMEs to make sure I wasn't missing something. Boo, Esri. Fix it. https://community.esri.com/ideas/14090
