Could you share RepresentationDownload.xml??

Thanks Binesh for the reply. Below is the RepresentationDownload.xml

<!--

  To use this task from a browser type the following into your address

  http://vmsrv-ptc10.ibaset.com/Windchill/servlet/IE/tasks/com/ptc/VisualizationDownload.xml?object_ref=wt.part.WTPart:411114

  The address above contains an argument that is passed into the task specifying

  the object ID for a WTPart (object_ref = VR:wt.part.WTPart:38573).

  This ID 38573 can be found by looking at the database in the WTPart table.

  Alternatly, you can add an additional argument that specifies the name of the group used

  for getting Part structure by adding the following to the end of the address (&group_out=jason_test).

  http://vmsrv-ptc10.ibaset.com/Windchill/servlet/IE/tasks/com/ptc/jasQueryChildren.xml?object_ref=VR:wt.part.WTPart:57935&group_out=jason_test

  If this is not specified, it uses the name (output) as a default. I do not know why this feature was added.
