Title: How to get Classifier ID/GUID for item of type 'PART'
Post by: sravang on February 05, 2021, 06:03:03 pm

Hello,

I want either ID/GUID of the classifier of element of type 'PART' to process them under associations.
I know that in case of sql query the GUID can be retrieved from 'PDATA1' column of t_object table. But I want that ID through API. I tried element.ClassifierID but it returns 0.

Thanks,
Sravan

PData corresponds to Element.MiscData

I got the right value from ClassifierID. Looked at an Object being classified. But indeed, a Part returns 0. Will have to look...

Indeed MiscData(0) contains the GUID of the classifier. EA strikes again!

Please try Element.PropertyType.

HTH,

HTH,

That returns the ID. Funny though, it's not called PropertyTypeID. Ah, forgot, it's EA.
