Life Cycle Navigation Criteria Examples
Life cycle navigation criteria are the equivalent of a structure filter in Windchill MPMLink, where Latest is selected for the Choose a Type field on the Configuration Specification tab of the Edit Filter window.
Examples of JSON payloads that can be used as life cycle navigation criteria are provided for each of the input parameters on the ConvertFromProcessPlanID service:
The following table shows the relationship between the settings on the Configuration Specification tab of the Edit Filter window in Windchill MPMLink and the objects and attributes in a JSON payload for life cycle navigation criteria.
