17273118 - Is it possible to use REST API to output part's ”Iteration“

[EvaPeng]

In this example, customer wants to output ”Iteration“：1,

like the ”Revision“ 

But seems attribute "Iteration" is not in Parts.json,  is it possible to output "Iteration"?

Thanks,

Eva

Hi @EvaPeng 

Yes you can substring the version attribute.

Hi @HelesicPetr 

Thanks for your Reply~

Do you mean by modifying the Parts.js or Parts.json under Windchill\codebase\rest\ptc\domain\ProdMgmt\v6\entity?
Sorry I still don't know how to achieve it.
Could you please teach me more in details?

Thanks in advance,

Eva

Hi @EvaPeng 

I don't know where you call the rest api but you can just change the result in your application so you read the version output and you just grab the value after dot in your target application. .

Hi @HelesicPetr 

I understand what you mean.

There seems to be no application involved, in this case customer run below URI on postman or other tools, and want to get one row that only output "Iteration".
<host>/Windchill/servlet/odata/ProdMgmt/Parts('OR:wt.part.WTPart:7078102')

Hi @EvaPeng 

Then you need to customize the RestAPI and add what you need if it can not be set OOTB.

Hi @EvaPeng 

You can try to add an attribute to the json definition

...\Windchill\codebase\rest\ptc\domain\ProdMgmt\v5\entity\Parts.json
