I don't think `republish` is an option. That's a retriggering of a previously published representation.

</if>Thanks for the input and code. I copied your code and did attached new xml file but did republish the file not generating the pdf/step file. Attached copy of xml file. Post publish is not working.
Post Publishing Succeeded with Warnings
Warning: there are no additional files in the representation to post publish |
The pdf/step is generated at initial publish. When it's created successfully, you'll see something like this:
Republish will just rerun whatever was used previously for that representation. It looks like your additional files aren't getting created. What's your WVS job monitor log look like for this?
Your additional files aren't getting created.
Are your publish rules set at the site level or a particular context?
Here is the example of pdf /step file generated when we do check and check out.
Also I tried to move pdf/steps created to attachment category in windchill. I followed the same steps mentioned in the link provided. the error msg attached below.
For your "adding files to attachments", this is what you want:
https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS348848
You set the property in wvs.properties to copy to EPM and it will add the published content you specify to the Attachments table automatically on publish.
