Version: Windchill 11.1

 

Use Case: Search CAD-Documents in Windchill with a csv.-file.


Description:

Hi All,

I have a request to export a larger amount of CAD data from Windchill. So that I don't have to export them manually one by one, I wanted to do this via the advanced search and load them all into a workspace at the same time.

Is there a way to start an advanced search in Windchill using a csv file?

Hi @GS_4867400 

Generally the answer is no.

The advanced search input is always in the UI not from a file. 

 

Also you can use separator in the number as a semicolon ";" and search more objects by number at one search.

My solution is now, to export the csv. to a notepad++ File and put all numbers in a row. From there i export the the numbers with semicolon ";" to the Windchill-Search.

That's it what I mentioned..

It is all what you can do and I think there is also some string limit for the search key.
