move location project

[aohara]

Hi

Is it possible to move items around (mass move) within a project?

Basically I have a project with about 50 folders, within each folder are wtparts, models and drawings. I need to move all content of the 50 folders into one folder within the project. Is this possible? The folder update script does not recognize the project name as a context

Cheers for any help

Hi Aidan,

if you are comfortable with using Windchill API (Customization), then to move a folder across containers use ContainerMoveHelper.service.moveAllVersions API. Refer to Windchill JavaDocs. You can download Windchill JavaDoc from https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/doc/refdoc.jsp

Below are few KB articles which can help you on this:

• To programmatically move an object between folder, you can refer: https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS152791
• To move object to another container folder you can refer to: https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS69568

I hope this helps you. Feel free to reply if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Shirish

Hi Aidan,

OOTB , you can try cut-paste option. I am not sure about the "folder update script", is it an SQL script?
