I want to delete a specific column 'Title' from the Assembly BOM and add 'Author', how do I do this using API or iLogic? Please help @JelteDeJong @etaCAD @WCrihfield @A.Acheson

As far as i know there is no API action for that. The column header data is held in an xml file. Either swap out the xml file through import customization method of BOM or the harder/ troublesome method would be to modify the xml file.

I agree with @A.Acheson.  You can do a lot of stuff like that with a PartsList in a drawing, but not directly to a BOMView in an assembly.  Folks usually set things up the way they want manually, then export the customization out to an XML file, so they can recall that spec again later in another assembly, by importing that custom spec.
