That's possible in few easy steps:

Import modules

from ansys.optislang.core import Optislang
from ansys.optislang.core.nodes import IntegrationNode, DesignFlow
import ansys.optislang.core.node_types as node_types

create Ansys optiSLang class object

osl = Optislang(ini_timeout=240)

create Ansys Workbench integration node

root_system = osl.application.project.root_system
wb_node: IntegrationNode = root_system.create_node(
    name='WB',
    type_=node_types.awb2_plugin,
    design_flow=DesignFlow.RECEIVE_SEND
)

wb_node.set_property(
    name="WorkbenchProjectFile",
    value={
        "path": {
            "base_path_mode": {"value": "ABSOLUTE_PATH"},
            "split_path": {"head": "", "tail": "coupled_function.wbpz"},
        }
    },
)

Example can be found at Coupled Function optiSLang Tutorial example
4. register parameter and responses

wb_node.load()
wb_node.register_locations_as_parameter()
wb_node.register_locations_as_response()

run project

osl.application.project.start(wait_for_finished=True)

In relation to this discussion, I’d like to know where I can find a list of the adjustable properties of each node type. In my case, I want to edit the run options inside the wb_node. I’ve done it in optiSLang, and now I want to be able to do it in PyOptiSLang.

Hi @Leire,

there are basically two ways of getting those information:
1. you can extract the json object with python_node.get_properties()
2. open your created project with Ansys optiSLang GUI and open Project overview:
