Dynamically adding property values to a script via FILE/API

[heikenashi1]

There are no documented or supported means for dynamically adding property values to a script by reading values off of an API or file. Are there any examples of code to accomplish this in the community? Would anyone know how to tackle this?

Hello heikenashi1, thanks for your post.

All properties of an indicator should be set in the State.SetDefaults, State.Configure, or State.DataLoaded. NinjaScript is a C# based scripting language, so it can use the WebClient or Httprequest class (publicly available links):

We do have an example here on performing file read/writing:

Edit: I found this example on the user app share site:

Please let me know if I can assist any further.
