Working with Inventor using Python

uma.mahesh — Thu, 16 Mar 2023 06:04:15 GMT

Dear all,

Good Morning,

I am working on a project where I need to create some plugins/ribbons in Inventor. I have chosen Python to perform this task. I would like to know if there is any feasibility to do that. Can anyone help me with either documentation or with API to proceed with Python.?

I am looking forward to receiving your response.

Im not sure why you did choose Python. Almost all documentation for Inventor API is in VB.net or VBa (and sometimes c#. Btw don't start learning VBa it's obsolete.) I have tried creating a Python once to update parameters. You can find it here on GitHub. But I expect that you cant create addins with Python.

But If you switch to a .Net language you can have a look at this tutorial.
