Change-Identity
This webject modifies attributes that define the identity of an object. For example, the Name and Number attributes define the identity of parts and documents in Windchill.
Windchill does not allow attributes defining identity to be updated using a normal update operation. Consequently, the Update-Objects webject cannot be used to update these attributes. Instead, the Change-Identity webject interfaces with the Windchill identity service to update these special attributes.

If a parameter is listed in the table but is not defined below, then it has a common parameter definition. For descriptions of those parameters, see the section Common Webject Parameters in Adapter Webjects Overview.
|
CONTAINER_REF
A Windchill context to apply the webject against. This parameter accepts the following types of input:
• The UFID of a Windchill context. Multiple UFIDs can be specified for this parameter.
• MEMBERSHIP—The query finds only those contexts of which the user is a member.
When this parameter is specified, the scope of queries executed against the TYPE and WHERE parameters are restricted to the associated context.
FIELD
The name and new value of an identity attribute. Multiple values can be specified for this parameter to define new values for identity attributes in cases where more than one attribute combine to create the identity for an object. This parameter is required.
GROUP_OUT
The name of the output group containing the results. If this parameter is omitted, then the name of the output group is constructed by appending the string “-Output” to the webject name. This parameter is optional.
OBJECT_REF
The Unique Federation Identifier (UFID) of a Windchill object. This parameter can only be specified once. If WHERE is specified, then OBJECT_REF must not be specified.
TYPE
The object type name. If WHERE is specified, TYPE must also be specified. For more information, see Specifying the TYPE and WHERE Parameters.
WHERE
Specifies a query expression identifying the objects for which to query. If OBJECT_REF is specified, then WHERE must not be specified. If WHERE is specified, then TYPE must also be specified. For more information, see Specifying the TYPE and WHERE Parameters.
