$CloudExpressionBase
gives the base URI used for storing cloud expressions.
Details
- By default, $CloudExpressionBase is the "CloudExpression" subdirectory of $CloudRootDirectory of the current user.
- $CloudExpressionBase=CloudObject["/name"] can be used to set up a new base with a specific name.
- The current value of $CloudExpressionBase only affects new cloud expressions created by CreateCloudExpression or cloud expression objects referred to with the short form CloudExpression["name"].
Examples
Basic Examples (1)
Define a cloud expression using the default value of $CloudExpressionBase:
customers = CloudExpression["customers"]The URI of the cloud expression is based within $CloudExpressionBase:
customers//InputForm$CloudExpressionBase//InputForm$CloudExpressionBase = CloudObject["/Project1"]Define another cloud expression using the new base:
orders = CloudExpression["orders"]The new cloud expression is relative to the "Project1" directory:
orders//InputFormChanging the base does not affect previously defined cloud expressions:
customers//InputFormHistory
