Question

Downloading EPMDocuments from server side

Hi

As we are aware that the download option for EPMDocuments has been removed by PTC. I got help from the posts in the community, i tried to execute the utility given in the thread (http://communities.ptc.com/thread/53101) . But seems it not working properly as expected. In my case it's more simpler as I need to download all the EPMDocument. When I execute this utility from the shell it downloads the EPMDocument, i.e. ".asm" file into ".ol" format and ".prt" file into ".log" file to my local drive. Whereas I don't want the file format to get changed once it gets downloaded on my local drive.

I received suggestions in the thread for downloading EPMDocument from the standalone windchill.But my requirement is to download it from the server side/vaults.

Can some one please help or suggest me to download it form the Windchill server/vaults.

Thanks.

Packages effectively allow you export documents in a managed collection.

In addition. If you use Windchill Parts then you can export the related CAD documents of a part configuration using Export Manager

For Creo and some other supported CAD apps you can also export from a workspace.

Thanks for the help Darren.

It would be really great and helpful if you suggest a way to automate the process to download only EPMDocument by writing windchill utility that can help me to download the files from the windchill server side directly.

Thanks.
