How can I use DPF to get the real constant ID of an element and then get the values of that real constant?

    It is possible to get real_id for elements now:

    from ansys.dpf import core as dpf

ds = dpf.DataSources(result_path=r"StaticStructural\file.rst")

model = dpf.Model(ds)
ms =model.metadata.meshed_region
op = dpf.operators.metadata.mesh_property_provider()
op.inputs.mesh_scoping.connect(ms.elements.scoping)
op.inputs.streams_container.connect(model.metadata.streams_provider)

op.inputs.property_name.connect('apdl_real_id')
fld = op.outputs.property_as_property_field()

    But for getting real_contants value, I think operator is not available in 2025.1, It is available in 2025R2 server. Below is example of it.

    real_op = dpf.Operator('real_constants_provider')
real_op.connect(3, model.metadata.streams_provider)
real_constant_data= real_op.eval()
