Server-side publishing with third-party ECAD integration requires consistency between EPM document content and ECAD WWGM. If the data is not populated by the ECAD WWGM, the data must be populated with the following criteria:
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.
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” in the
Creo View ECAD Adapters Installation and Configuration Guide in the
Creo View Help Center or as a PDF on the
Reference Documents site.
