Configuring a Creo Parametric Worker for File Synchronization
The adapter for Creo Parametric supports File Synchronization. File Synchronization enables the worker to synchronize the Windchill CAD document content with the current Windchill metadata (EPM structure and attributes). To configure File Synchronization, follow the steps in this procedure.
* 
Since Creo Parametric bundles Windchill CAD integration client, you do not have to install the Windchill Workgroup Manager (WWGM) before setting up Creo Parametric for File Synchronization.
1. Verify that the Windchill server and your installations of Creo Parametric and Creo View adapters on the worker machine are compatible.
◦ See the MCAD Application Adapters section of the Creo View Adapters Software Matrices.
◦ Refer to the File and Content Synchronization Compatibility Article for your Windchill server release. For Windchill 11.0 refer to article CS223581, and the Creo Data Management Compatibility Roadmap.
2. Edit the Windchill account credentials in the auth.properties file, to allow access to the required Windchill objects.
Refer to step 2 in the Using a File Synchronization-Capable Worker section of the Windchill Help Center.
* 
No further configuration is required to enable File Synchronization for Creo Parametric workers.
3. Test the File Synchronization enabled CAD worker. Publish CAD document parts, assemblies and drawings of the Creo Parametric from Windchill.
4. You have now configured File Synchronization for Creo Parametric:
◦ To configure your WVS worker for File Synchronization for non- Creo Parametric applications, continue to the next section.
◦ If Creo Parametric is the only CAD application for which you are configuring automated publishing, then you have completed the procedure and you can begin using automated publishing.
