Install the Windchill Customization¶

This step applies to on-premise Windchill integrations only. A Windchill administrator with file access to the Windchill server performs this step.

The aP Connect Agent installation folder includes a windchill-customization folder containing REST customizations that Windchill requires for the aP Connect integration.

Customization Files¶

The windchill-customization folder contains the following folder structure and files:

windchill-customization\
  custom\
    domain\
      ProdMgmt\
        v3\
          entity\
            CADDocuments.json
            PartsExt.js
            PartsExt.json

Deploy the Customization¶

On the Agent host, open <install-folder>\windchill-customization.
Copy the custom\... folder tree to the Windchill server under ...\Windchill\codebase\rest\, merging with the existing structure.

The windchill-customization folder maps to codebase\rest\. Most of the destination path already exists — you may need to create only the final folders (for example, v3\entity).

Example destination path (Windchill 12 and 13):
```
C:\ptc\Windchill_12.0\Windchill\codebase\rest\custom\domain\ProdMgmt\v3\entity
C:\ptc\Windchill_13.0\Windchill\codebase\rest\custom\domain\ProdMgmt\v3\entity
```
After copying, the entity folder should contain CADDocuments.json, PartsExt.js, and PartsExt.json.

Note

A Windchill restart is not required. Windchill picks up the customization automatically.
