Solibri API - Solibri Autorun Examples

The Solibri Autorun packages includes three XML files, which represent three different use cases. You can use these for practising the use of Solibri Autorun. The example use cases use sample resources included in the Solibri Office install package, but please ensure that the file paths are correct. You can also edit the files if you wish to use other resources.

Example 1

This XML file includes the tasks to:

  1. Open an SMC model.
  2. Update the IFC model files included in the SMC model.
  3. Save the updated SMC model with the same name.
  4. Exit Solibri.
