Hi Aaron,

 

When I have encountered with error it meant that the attribute I was trying to access was not present. In my case, this attribute was optional so I had to check for existence before trying to access it, e.g.:

 

if hasattr(virtual, "rules"): data["vs_rules"] = virtual.rules

 

Best Regards, Kurt
