Best way to query API objects?

bmyers1 — Fri, 25 Oct 2024 00:45:42 GMT

I am brand new to Fusion's API and I was wondering if Fusion has developer tools or an easy way to view information about different objects I am looking to manipulate in the API.

Hi,

I don't know any development tool.

I often use the Text Command window to display information about the model in two ways:

- From the scripts: using the Application.log() function

- From the same text command window: first choose "Py" in the lower right corner and then write any Python sentence which it evaluates immediately as you can see in the next image:

I hope this can help.

Regards,

Jorge Jaramillo
