Integration Windchill and Vuforia Studio
Hey Community,
Is there any possible way to integrate Windchill and Vuforia studio. My use case here is, I need to list out all the available 3D model available in Windchill into Vuforia Studio screen, based on user selection I need to show 3D model in 3D Model widget. This question has already been asked in forum but i still could not find a right answer and definetly need more insights into this topic. Please give your valuable feedback.
Regards,
JA

Hi @MA8731174 ,
you can download data possibly directly from windchill or other server but that will not work because of CORS. So means that Vuforia View will not allow a call via different domains. so therefore the supported way is to use Windchill data --> to Thingworx repository --> Vuforia Studio
Here I want to refer to point 1.) of that post : https://community.ptc.com/t5/Vuforia-Studio/Is-there-a-way-to-load-3D-model-from-Thingworx-repository-to/td-p/961474
Thanks

for the Integration from windchill to TWX - so the step is to export first from Windchill the pvz files as export to folder - as the part what is visualization /Windchill adapter could be seen in the article https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS112832
- In Windchill, if GDD is enabled, export pvz file generated by Creo View Adapters.
- How to create a Graphics Dynamic Document (GDD) that can be opened in IsoDraw or in Creo Illustrate from Windchill ?
- Can Creo Illustrate be integrated with Windchill PDMLink to load published CAD representations?
- How to create a PVZ automatically after publishing a CAD Document, that can be imported into Creo Illustrate?
- How to generate a Publication Graphic or Dynamic Document published automatically for use in Creo Illustrate?
- How to publish representation to pvz format
- A workflow from initiation to completion
Res:
- Configure post-publishing
- See Post-Publishing in the WVS Publish Rules chapter of the Windchill 12.0.2.0 Visualization Services Administrator’s Guide for details
- This provides an overview of post-publishing, along with a description of the four kinds of PostPublishdelegates. The code that can be executed is called a PostPublishDelegate
- Post-publishing is the process of executing delegated code after a representation has been successfully created and stored
- Generically the EPMPostPublishDelegate can handles any authoring application
- Once publishing of an EPMDocument is complete and a representation is stored, the EPMPostPublishDelegate:
- Creates a Creo View archive file (PVZ) of the representation’s content
- Stores the PVZ on a new EPMDocument - a Dynamic Document (or Arbortext Authored Dynamic Document, for Arbortext)
- Additionally, if the Dynamic Document already exists, the delegate code iterates the
Dynamic Document, thus providing a means to track the history through the iteration
history of the Dynamic Document.
- Note: This is done to give enterprise control and visibility of the published content separately from the Dynamic Document structure, while maintaining a record of the association through a PublishedContentLink.
- requres to create an custmized class , please see also the WCVisualizationServiceGuideHelp
- Once publishing of an EPMDocument is complete and a representation is stored, the EPMPostPublishDelegate:
-pvz file could be loaded e.g. in Thingworx to a folder in FileRepository thing with fileupload widget or using some javascript automatization

I mentioned in the previous post the usage of customization to the addpater post-publishing process - therefore I splitted it here into a separte post because it is other technique- possibly more easy to handle.. For that techniques you need that widndchill use visualization where the cad model are visualized ito pvz internally - so in this case you could extract the pvz file via Visualization Rest API e.g. PTC.visualization.getPVZ()
Here is also an article
[Knowledge Hub] Windchill Visualization Services - Rest Services
which point to a hub - e.g. https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS350641
with following points:
- How to get the Representation ID in WRS?
- How to download Representation as Zip (pvz file )?
