Hi Ben,

   GAPs are sort of deprecated at this point in favor
of SkinScript. In SkinScript you might do something like this:


WITH accounts.getItem(self.account_id) COMPUTE account_object=RESULT

or more carefully...

WITH accounts.getItem(self.account_id) COMPUTE account_object=(RESULT is _.None) and NOT_FOUND or RESULT
