Hello ihayesjr

 I know your answer was in 2016. What about 2019? Still do not support Python?

 Thanks

We have no plans to support Python in current or future releases.

Correct the highlighted errors and try again.

Does anybody know whether it's possible to work around the lack of Python support and use Python anyway?

Perhaps by calling the Vault .NET libraries from Python?

I might try this soon as I wasn't able to get anything working with .NET in Visual Studio. Not even the examples.

Hi gmeinders,

Recently we have developed a connector between Odoo and Autodesk Vault Pro in order to retrieve data from Item Master. Using Web Services this connector has been entirely developed in Python.

I have some videos for the usability.

For others interested in using Python syntax to access Vault, IronPython can be used for this.

I did some tests and it seems to be working (there are 0 examples online though).

Now what I need is VDF documentation which I can't find anywhere. Can anybody point me in the right direction for documentation that shows the entire VDF API, methods, arguments, what the methods return, objects, etc? All I can find are very limited examples and very general explanations.

Where's the API documentation hidden? I found some info in the XML files that come with the VDF dll's, but there must be something better?

PS: can someone please fix this forum for Firefox? The useless "Your post has been changed because invalid HTML was found in the message body. The invalid HTML has been removed. Please review the message and submit the message when you are satisfied." error is driving me kind of nuts. Had to switch to Edge to use this website?!

Hi Cavallerin,

Sure, we already have 5 connectors working.

We already have a python script in Excel that retrieve data from vault based on itemNumber.

Hi,
I'm sorry, but haven't checked till now this thread.
Well is it possible to share with me how you managed to connect to the Vault?

Thx!
