How to get file history using toolkit

Hello

 

Can anyone suggest any way to access file history using toolkit? We have Creo 4.0 M070.

 

Where to find in Creo : Review tab---> File History

 

Thanks and Regards

Interactive commands to file history in Creo 4 is:

 

Tools - Investigate - File History

After calling this function Creo save a file to working dir (*.inf). Use ProMacroLoad()

Or you can set option info_output_format text

And this information will be saved to txt file

First when you search File History toolkit, in the knowledge base you will find this article: https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS194622 that says that this is not part of Creo Toolkit functionalities ie there is no direct API.

 

Second, and to every TSEs reading, whenever you wonder if a Toolkit function exists rely on this rule of thumb: https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS324624  if it is possible from the UI, then it is likely with Toolkit (but not necessarily available).

 

In this instance, File History is in the grey zone (Existing UI workflow but not Toolkit possible).
