Adding Authoring Application Parameters (Autodesk Inventor)
Default system parameters are pushed from Windchill when a CAD part or drawing is saved or checked in; they are listed below. You can keep these parameters, change them, or create new ones. Use the following process to access the page to add a new parameter. To add new parameters, select Custom on the iProperties page.
* 
Hyperlinks are not supported; therefore Hyperlink base is not valid for mapping.
The following is a list of standard parameter names that can be mapped either to a custom parameter name or a standard Windchill system attribute (using the server-side preferences mapping functionality) to put the values of the Windchill system attribute into a parameter. The labels that should be used are listed in the next table.

1. The MSP:* comments that are present in the CAD Documents will not be sent to Windchill if they are not mapped in Windchill. When MSP:* are mapped to Windchill, they behave as mapped IBA's. There will not be any visible changes to User Interface(UI) behavior with this implementation.
2. When Naming Parameter=MSP:TITLE is mapped in Windchill > Site > Utilities > Preference Management, the CAD document name is published in the Title field on the File > iProperties > Summary tab in Autodesk Inventor.
