Is there API name for the variables created from APDL

Valentyn Barannik

Hello Team,

We automatically read input and outputs from Ansys Mechanical project. everything worked well till we decided to estimate some results based on APDL script. For some reason the APIname is absent for APDL variable added to project tree (see the attached pictures)
Or may be we are doing creating of APDL variable incorrectly?

I don't think there is a direct APIName for the output parameters, because they are dependent on the APDL code. Typically, you would access them from a list:

solution0 = ExtAPI.DataModel.Project.Model.Analyses[0].Solution
apdl_command0 = solution0.GetChildren[Ansys.ACT.Automation.Mechanical.CommandSnippet](True)[0]
output0 = apdl_command0.OutputParameters[0]
variable_name = output0.Name
value = output0.Value
print variable_name , ' = ', value
