Hi Dojo,

I'm creating a GQI data source where the start and end time are optional. How can I verify in code if something has been filled in?

Hi Jens,

The OnArgumentsProcessedInputArgs object contains a HasArgumentValue which will return false if the optional argument is not filled in (see docs).

Additionally, you can also use the TryGetArgumentValue which will try to get the value for a given argument. If the argument is found, it'll return true (see docs).

Hi Jens,

You could use the methodTryGetArgumentValue to check if there is a value available. Example:

if (args.TryGetArgumentValue(myArgument, out myArgumentValue))
{

// do something

}

Hope it helps.
