Getting global attributes of WTDocument by OData

Hi @VladiSlav,

Please refer to this helpful article : 

@VladiSlav

If you have a simple IBA, you just have to add in Parts.json the following :

{

"name":"IBA",

"internalName":"IBA",

"type":"String"

}

• Here an illustration with a custom enumtype (adding an IBA linked to a  Global Enumeration).

Create an entry in Parts.json, specifying a new attribute. As it is an enumeration, I will add the following :

{

                               "name": "EnumString",

"internalName": "EnumString",

"type": "PTC.EnumType"

                               }

In Parts.json, findable in codebase\rest\ptc\domain\ProdMgmt\v2\entity\Parts.json

Then it will look like this :

{

 "name":"Part",

 "collectionName":"Parts",

 "type":"wcType",

 "wcType":"wt.part.WTPart",

 "description":"Parts",

 "operations":"CREATE,UPDATE,DELETE",

 "attributes":[

 { 

 "name":"Name",

 "internalName":"name",

 "type":"String",

 "required":true

 }, { 

 "name":"Number",

 "internalName":"number",

 "type":"String"

 }, { 

 "name":"EndItem",

 "internalName":"endItem",

 "type":"Boolean",

 "driver":true

 }, { 

 "name":"TypeIcon",

 "internalName":"type_icon",

 "type":"PTC.Icon",

 }, {

 "name":"Identity",

 "internalName":"identity",

 }, { 

 "name":"GeneralStatus",

 "internalName":"statusFamily_General",

 "type":"PTC.Icon",

 }, { 

 "name":"ShareStatus",

 "internalName":"statusFamily_Share",

 "type":"PTC.Icon",

 "readOnly":true 

 }, {

}

Without restarting Windchill :

GET http://pdm10.de/Windchill/servlet/odata/ProdMgmt/Parts('VR:wt.part.WTPart:2874036') In Postman

Give this output :
