# Teamcenter Fetch, sync and report on part and assembly data from [Siemens Teamcenter PLM](https://plm.sw.siemens.com/en-US/teamcenter/). A Teamcenter assembly in Violet Violet structures and stores Part metadata as well as associated files like 2D drawings or 3D models. From there, you can sync data and files to downstream applications like [NetSuite](/apps/n/netsuite.md), [ION](/apps/i/ion/generate-api-credentials-in-ion.md), [Manufacturo](/apps/m/manufacturo.md), [Boltline](/apps/b/boltline.md), [Cofactr](/apps/c/cofactr.md) and more. Data can be synced on an individual basis or for an entire integration - requiring no manual intervention. See our [Example syncs](/features/workflows/data-sync-workflows/example-syncs.md) for more info. ### Getting started To get started, follow the instructions below: * For **on-premises** implementations: * Connect [directly to your Teamcenter SQL database](/apps/t/teamcenter/connect-direct-to-database.md) (recommended for faster performance) * Connect [via the Teamcenter API](/apps/t/teamcenter/connect-via-api.md) (necessary for files) * For **cloud** implementations, follow the instructions for [Teamcenter X](/apps/t/teamcenter/connect-teamcenter-x.md) Or, continue reading to learn more about how it works: * [Supported data types](/apps/t/teamcenter/supported-data-types.md) * [Teamcenter property mapping](/apps/t/teamcenter/teamcenter-property-mapping.md) * [Teamcenter FAQ](/apps/t/teamcenter/teamcenter-faq.md) --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.violetlabs.com/apps/t/teamcenter.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
