Obtaining URL for PVS files

Where can one get the URL for a cad drawing's pvs rendering. The URL definitions I see in the Product View document dont match what I see available in Windchill.

Thanks for any assistance, or a point in the right direction.

I don't think it is available in the web UI.

Depending on what you need the URL for it requires either creating a report using the QueryBuilder, coding using either the InfoEngine or Java API.

What I have done to download the PVS files is to make an external client program using the SOAP interface of InfoEngine. The key to getting the URL of the PVS is to call Navigate() for the CAD document object using the "wt.representation.RepresentableLink" as link class and "theRepresentation" as the role.

EDIT: Well, on a second look you can get the URLs in the Web UI (in 9.1 M020 which I am on). Go to Drawing --> General, Representations --> Save Rep. --> Save a link ...

cheers,

Jørn
