access datatable/sfdata from text area html code

[Tom Tang 2]

hi there

I have a requirement that need to build a dropdown list using html in text area becasue the spotfire dropdown list does not have search box.

so my question will be how can I access data which is from a datatable in html, I have below html code with hardcoded dropdown data

how do I replace these dropdown content with data of a datatable

is it possible to generate a json file from datatable and consume these json in html thru js (not sure how to do it, I am not a js guy), any suggestion

thanks!

You could try a python script to save datatable information to a document property in the JSON format :http://bispotfire.blogspot.com/2015/07/data-table-to-json-format-string.htmlthen us JS to read the document property.
