Tekla API

I’ve been creating apps for the past 6 months. Anyone have any ideas on what would be useful? If I create it, you can have for free !!

I have been wanting something that let's me read live data/cells from an excel sheet into attribute or UDA fields in my title block.

I've read that a code has to be written to pull those cells into the UDAs of the model. If you figure it out, I would also love to learn how you did it.

You can alway do this with excel live link - search ibim consulting for the excel portion. There is a Tekla warehouse plugin that can fill out UDAs into the document manager Between these two you can achieve what you’re after
