I have some requirement. I want to get part name just beside Balloon in creo drawing automatically. Currently I am putting it manually.

Is there a way to get it automatically.

Attached snapshot for better understanding.

Assuming you are talking about BOM Table balloons, I believe so. You will need to customize your BOM balloon to show a part number parameter (or file name if it is your part number). There is some good info in the post below.

If the note has a fixed offset to the circle, then it can be done with a custom bom balloon.  The picture shows the note sometimes left/right/above/below the balloon, which doesn't have a clear means to define it without having two objects (as you are doing currently).

For the case shown, you could just have multiple symbols and then do an ALT symbol for those cases in which you need it in an alternate orientation.
