Converting one subtype of EPMDocument from another subtype of EPMDocument

JA_11399780 — Wed, 23 Apr 2025 14:49:15 GMT

I want to convert the current type of object which is a EPMDocument subtype to another subtype of EPMDocument. Will it be possible using wt.epm.util.SoftTypeChangeUtility ?

Appears so but never used it. See here for docs: https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS166038?source=search

Thanks for sharing! I have gone through the article. Now I have question that If this utility works, what should be the value of first argument that accepts which is CADName. Do I need to give the name of the object or oid. It would be helpful, if anyone share the example of the complete command to run.
