For ECAD server side publishing, the following requirements must be met:
1. Save all primary content, including all design data and related data required to open the design on a remote worker machine, as a single ZIP file.
2. Add the file name of the primary design item being published to the ECAD_DESIGN_ITEM attribute.
3. For ECAD neutral file format server-side publishing, add the neutral file name (with extensions) being published to the ECAD_NEUTRAL_FORMAT_FILE attribute.
For ECAD data that is eligible for server-side publishing, this enables the following:
• Creating a New Representation
• Republishing jobs
|
|
• File synchronization is not supported by ECAD publishing.
• The alternate file formats are not supported by ECAD publishing.
|
Server-side publishing requires a worker to be configured. For more information, see “Installing and Configuring the Adapters” section of the Creo View ECAD Adapters Guide in the Creo View Help Center or as a PDF on the Reference Documents site.
