Please help me create WTPart with WRS

[cko]

I am creating and testing simple functions using EXCEL VBA.

I am testing the function with WRS before coding EXCEL VBA.

WRS > PTC Product Management Domain V6 > Testing POST /CreateParts results in an error

Where the error occurs

 "Context@odata.bind": "Containers('OR:wt.pdmlink.PDMLinkProduct:131308')",

erro code : 400

 - MALFORMED_BINDING_LINK

 - "The format of 'binding link' is incorrect."

Many users have asked about the above issue in Google search results, and I have tested it several times by referring to the answers.

1. I tested it by referring to the PTC manual, but an error occurred.,  - MALFORMED_BINDING_LINK

    **** Request Body

      {

"Name":"TestWTPart_001",

"AssemblyMode": {

"Value": "separable",

"Display": "Separable"

    },

"PhantomManufacturingPart" : false,

"Context@odata.bind": "Containers('OR:wt.pdmlink.PDMLinkProduct:48507000')"

      }

2. I also defined "Folder@odata.bind", but I get an error

3. I also defined "PTC.DataAdmin.Containers ('OR:wt.pdmlink.PDMLinkProduct:131308') ", but an error occurs

Anyone who has successfully created WTPart with WRS, please help me.

thank you

Hi cko,

Thank you for your question. 

Your post appears well documented but has not yet received any response. I am replying to raise awareness. Hopefully, another community member will be able to help.

Since you haven't pasted an error it's difficult to find the exact problem. It could be that you forgot to set the binding of the odata type?
This should work:

{
  "@odata.type": "#PTC.ProdMgmt.Part",
  "AssemblyMode": {
    "Value": "component"
  },
  "EndItem": false,
  "Context@odata.bind": "Containers('OR:wt.pdmlink.PDMLinkProduct:131439')",
  "DefaultUnit": {
    "Value": "ea"
  },
  "DefaultTraceCode": {
    "Value": "0"
  },
  "View": "Design",
  "GatheringPart": false,
  "Source": {
    "Value": "make"
  },
  "PhantomManufacturingPart": false,
  "Name": "Test Rest"
}

Thank you

I tested WRS but I get the same error. The error is below (T.T)
If WRS passes the test, I want to develop it with excel VBA 

Error: 400

does it work inside the Windchill WRS page? Or with which program are you running the code? The easiest way is to run it inside Windchill. If the call is failing there, you probably have a problem with an OIR?

Thank you

Tested on Windchill PDMLink 13.0 WRS.
ORI (Object Initialization Rules) used existing settings.
We will test by adding the default folder of Context.

Unfortunately,
It seems that no user has succeeded in this.

- JSON format is a bit strict, make sure the format is correct

- get it working with 'export importable' first, then try WRS

- as others have said, get it working in the WRS web page first before VBA

- experiment with the GET api's first before learning the POST api's

- VBA? you might find python easier to use

Hope this helps.

thank you
I have a question

1. get it working with 'export importable' first
   -> Where do I configure Windchill?  No separate settings were made.

2. The reason we use VBA is because we use "VBA-JSON"
   -> Even non-programmers can easily create their own programs. That's why I like VBA.
        I'll also study Python (^_^)
   -> I created a VBA code using Chat-GTP/Bard.

thank you

[rleir]

Did you export an importable yet?

You used 'Chat-GTP/Bard'? That might be a good start, but .. but ..
