What API to use to find Lifecycle phase of an item?

Anonymous — Thu, 09 Jan 2020 12:50:52 GMT

For our purposes, we need to find out the lifecycle status (Production Release, Obsolete) of a Material's and BOM item.

We then use this status to decide whether to push an attachment or not. Can you help us pinpoint the exact field which we may use to find out the lifecycle phase of an item.

We tried using the API given in this link:

http://help.autodesk.com/view/PLM/ENU/?guid=GUID-C5779D85-DC2B-42E0-B14F-9D75BEF5BD72

and got response as given in attachment. Can you help us figure out whether the field list.item.details.status is indeed the lifecycle phase (Having values Obsolete and Production Release)

I think list.item.details.status will give you "Unreleased", "Working", or "Latest".

In my data set, the value to use is item.details.lifecycleState.stateName

Your corresponding value for this, "3 - Created", looks odd to me.

Are you using manual revisions on your tenant?

(I think that is the best V1 API to use, yes)

Please use V3 API http://help.autodesk.com/view/PLM/ENU/?guid=FLC_RestAPI_Resource_Endpoints_Item_API_v3workspaces_workspaceId_items_itemId_v3workspaces_workspaceId_items_itemId_GET_html

V1 API is in maintenance mode and it is recommended to use V3 for development and integrations whenever is possible
