How to pass BOM attributes with //Fusion360 protocol?

[Anonymous]

Hi, 

I have managed to open a model within Fusion 360 by importing a STEP file using //fusion360 protocol.  I would like to know if it is possible (any command), to set BOM elements after file is imported.

The STEP file doesn't contain BOM attributes, I am not sure if STEP standard supports BOM attributes. Therefore, BOM are handled separatly in my case.

Could you help me?

Thanks for your help,

Sébastien

Hi Sébastien,

Are you trying to pass some BOM related info using fusion360 protocol?

If so then you can just use privateInfo and pass any type of information you want. And you addin can listen to this event, retrieve the privateInfo, and do anything with it that is possible using the API:
