Scripting access from Fusion Lifecycle to Fusion Team

Scripting access from Fusion Lifecycle to Fusion Team

Currently in Fusion Lifecycle, scripting access in the attachments tabs is limited to many read only features.  With the recent introduction to Fusion Team (cloud PDM), it opens many good options.

 

I would like to see scripting features which allow me from Fusion Lifecycle to access Fusion Team.  For example, create a folder in Fusion Team, rename files, or automatically find and attach files.

 

Here's a simple case scenario.  In Fusion Lifecycle I have a design process work flow.  When my design is approved, I want to upload the assembly and solid models so manufacturing can view.  During the workflow transition it would be nice if I could program a consistent folder structure in my Fusion Team rather than have people manually creating the folders and naming it incorrectly or placing folder in the wrong area.

 

Another scenario is I have a product catalog with product drawings.  If I have 100 product records in Fusion Lifecycle, I also have 100 drawings, 1 for each product record.  With Fusion Team I can now place and manage all 100 drawings in a folder.  The only issue is I have to go into each record, and still manually choose the correct drawing.  (i.e D10 record needs D10.pdf).  Or if I have to remove all 100 drawings and replace them with new drawings, again I will need to update each record.  It would be nice if I could program to automatically find and attach the correct drawing.  If recordname = D10, find D10.pdf file id and attach.

 

If this could be done, it would be an even bigger game changer for our business.
