Onshape to ION

Getting started

Follow the instructions below to automatically sync data from Onshape to ION:

1

Create an Onshape integration

First, create an Onshape integration following the instructions here. Configure your data fetch, specifying:

• The types of data you want to fetch (parts, files, etc).

• Fetch frequency - either via webhooks, which enables an event-driven sync (this is recommended due to Onshape's API limits), or scheduled - for example every 1 hour, 10 minutes, etc.

Violet enables automatic ingestion (and syncing) of Onshape files . By default, this includes 2D part drawings (.pdf) and 3D models (.stp). If you are interesting in fetching or syncing other file types, reach out and let us know.

2

Create an ION integration

Next, set up an ION integration, following the instructions here. Configure your data fetch, specifying:

• The types of data you want to fetch (parts, runs, purchase orders, etc).

• Fetch frequency - this is either scheduled, eg. every 1 hour, 10 minutes, etc., or event-driven via webhooks.

Violet will need to fetch whichever data you wish to be synced from Onshape (eg. parts).
