Windchill Customization

Hello Everyone, I'm working with Windchill 13.0 and need to add a simple action button to the Windchill interface that can call my custom API functions. Here’s what I want to achieve:1) Add a button to the Windchill UI.2) When the button is clicked, it should trigger a JavaScript function that calls a Windchill OData API.Here’s an example of the API function I want to call(will be using a java version of this function): async function getParts() {const apiUrl = "http://windchill.gosaas.io:80/Windchill/servlet/odata/v6/ProdMgmt/Parts?$count=false";const username = "ahsan";const password = "Tartan123";const basicAuth = 'Basic ' + btoa(username + ':' + password);try {const response = await fetch(apiUrl, {method: 'GET',headers: {'Authorization': basicAuth,'Content-Type': 'application/json','Accept': 'application/json'}});if (!response.ok) {throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);}const data = await response.json();return data;} catch (error) {console.error(

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: A checked-in CAD document in Windchill not retrieved using the ODATA REST API.Description: Hi,I'm new to the REST API and I'm trying to get a checked-in CAD file using the ODATA REST API.I'm using the swagger interface: The Get Documents method in the CAD Documents section, but all I get in the JSON response are the template files and not the file that I checked in.Why can this happen and how can I fix it?Thanks!

Hi, to execute jasper report from input jsp page I am using the following API- ReportHelper.manager.getThirdPartyReportExecuteUrl(reportRef,parameters); Here, the reportRef should be of type ObjectReference and should refer to a Windchill report object. However the object that I get from the jsp page using the request.getParameter("oid") is of type WTDocument.  Now, when I try to send this object in the above API , it gives the error-java.lang.ClassCastException: class wt.doc.WTDocument cannot be cast to class com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.report.Report (wt.doc.WTDocument and com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.report.Report are in unnamed module of loader 'app') Kindly suggest on how to resolve this.Thanks,Ramsha

Hello, for one of my customers I've created a wizard step with some change validation info.the data is arranged in a flat tree structure which is displayed in the treetable component.See attached example screenshot.One requirement is that non "green" checks are auto expanded for the user. I tried to implement it as described in the customizers guide, but so far no luck. The TreeTable component uses a custom AbstractConfigurableTableBuilder with an custom ExpansionStateManagerthe table config looks like this   JcaTreeConfig treeCfg = (JcaTreeConfig) factory.newTreeConfig(); treeCfg.setDataSourceMode(DataSourceMode.DISABLED); treeCfg.setType(Object.class.getName()); treeCfg.setTargetObject("origObject"); treeCfg.setComponentMode(ComponentMode.VIEW); treeCfg.setActionModel("tcw tcwValidation table"); //treeCfg.setMenubarName("tcw tcwValidation table"); treeCfg.setId(TCW_TCWVALIDATION_TABLE_ID); treeCfg.setLabel(WTMessage.getLocalizedMessage(TCW_RESO

My requirement is to search the user from Workflow Task > Resource pool .ResourcePool for a specific Task has the role and Groups Mapped . I need to Search the user by UserName in groups only that are allocated to the Resource Pool for that Workflow Task .I could find the Users and return the List of Users from The Context team  and specific Role . However ,  Challenge comes  , when user had to search for a User which is not a member of Group .Is there any API , I can Use to find the users that are member of Groups added to Resource pool? My action call is from ThingWorx and I need to create an WebService , which returns the user only if Present in Resource pool 

Has anyone (with limited or no customization), came up with a way to limit the type of a process object to select based on the base object type?   The use case I am investigating is this: Subtype of Change Review (called Milestone Review). I want users to create Problem Reports against the review to document issues found while completing the review using a subtype of a PR (Review Finding).    Ideally, even from the Action menu I would like the selection to be "New Review Finding" instead of "New Problem Report" when being created against the "Milestone Review" subtype.           Alternatively, when "New Problem Report" is selected, I would like it to default to "Review Finding" as the subtype in the New PR wizard  

Currently, I've setup a basic document approval workflow in Windchill where the first task is to submit the document for approval and 'set up participants' of who to approve. Is there a way require that users actually 'set up participants' into the various roles? The set up participants is on a separate tab and it's easy for users to click submit without assigning anyone to the roles. Using Windchill 11.0 M030.

Hello together,I struggle with the following topic: I created the child change request Standard Change Request (SCR) out of the parent Change Request (CR).Now I want to have an individual order of the sections on the Details tab like Affected Objects, Attachments, Associated Process Objects, etc for the SCR. And no I don't mean the attributes layout.I already found the current action model, which is used for all the change request types: changeRequestInfoPageTabSetAnd also the section in the ChangeManagement-actionModels.xmlBut when I make changes here, it will be changed for the parent Change Request and also all child objects. I would suggest the next steps for the SCR are to create1. a action model name="standardChangeRequestDetailsTab" for the order of the single elements2. a action model name="standardChangeRequestInfoPageTabSet" for the different tabs But how do I link now the new created standardChangeRequestInfoPageTabSet with the actual

I have a list of WT-parts which were already classified with a node. If I want to change the node with a loader spreadsheet file, it is easy as we can simply change the classification name. But if I want to remove the classification of those WT-Parts using Loader spreadsheet file, how can I do it. Keeping classification column as empty is not working.   We can do it one by one manually as checking out, modify and checking in. But I have a lot of parts like that, I want to do it by Import from spreadsheet method.
