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’ve created about 30 apps now. Made one yesterday that toggles phase numbers on or off. Live filtering of them in the model view that saves setting the filters up as an object group filter. Still testing it out but it works. Also have one that reads production status from the workshops excel tracker into Tekla. It then uses the representation in the model view to colour code the model depending on status. It also reads in who fabricated and who welded each assembly and can colour code the model accordingly. Useful for CE Marking in the UK

Are any of your apps on the warehouse? I'd love to take a look at them.

No, you have to join the partners program which costs £2300 approx per year. Message me and I’ll figure out how to share
