Get File Properties

Retrieves all property values for a specified file in Autodesk Vault.

Purpose

Use this task to read a file's metadata from Vault so that downstream tasks can make decisions based on property values, populate reports, or pass data to external systems. It is suited for validation steps, conditional branching based on file state, and any scenario where a workflow needs access to Vault property data before taking further action.
