Splunk Python Helpers and getting interval from config file to use in input script

[brent_weaver]

I am writing a modular input using the App Builder (which is super cool) and I need to make my API calls to be in sync with when Splunk schedules the script to run. I notice there are allot of helper functions where you can mine data from your config you create, however I do not see one for interval. Am I missing it?

I found my my answer. If I use helper.get_arg(“interval”) I get the value I am looking for.
