Process Inventor ​

Opens an Autodesk Inventor model file, applies a set of parameter updates, exports a DWF, and saves the result.

Serialised Task

This task runs through the serialisation queue. Only one instance of this task executes at a time across all concurrent workflows. If multiple workflows reach this task simultaneously, they will queue and execute one at a time.

Purpose ​

Use this task within a Configurator workflow to drive parametric changes to an Inventor part or assembly. The task accepts a model file name and a dictionary of parameter key-value pairs to apply, merging them with any web control values already present in the workflow data. On completion it produces the updated parameter set and a path to the exported DWF file for use in viewer or downstream tasks.

Inputs ​

FieldTypeRequiredDescription
Model File NameTextYesThe filename of the Inventor model to process (e.g. mypart.ipt or myassembly.iam).
Inventor ParametersKey-Value PairsNoDictionary of parameter names and values to apply to the model. These values override any matching parameters already in the workflow context.

Outputs ​

NameDescription
UpdatedParametersThe final dictionary of parameter names and values that were applied to the model.
ViewerDwfThe full file path to the DWF file exported from the updated model.
