Job Server, add revision table update

woodstylee3 — Thu, 05 May 2016 06:01:38 GMT

I've written a custom job for job server in the api, and would like to trigger a revision table update after the job has finished. Can any-one advise the job parameters that need to be passed to initiate this job, or preferably if it is possible to add a sync properties job, with a parameter that triggers a revision table update job when the sync properties has completed?

The Vault thick client, thin client, and job processor, are really just implementations of the underlying webservices. The API doesn't expose client functionality, but just the webservices. I believe that the standard (in the box) revision block update automation provided in the thick client, actually uses the Inventor Vault Addin to make the change on the drawing. I don't believe that there is a way to tap into that.

I suspect you will need to write your own Inventor addin to do the rev block update, and then your custom job can talk to that via the COM interface, to get the update done.

I'm happy to be corrected on this, but that is my understanding at the moment.
