Description

A PostConfigurationQuery can be used to search a LibraryLocation for a set of PostConfiguration objects matching the required properties.

Methods

Name Description
classType Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType().
execute Query for specific posts. This PostConfiguration query.

Properties

Name Description
capability Specifies the capability to search for in the post library.
isValid Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
location The location specifies the location to search in the post library. Setting the location clears any previous specified URL.
objectType This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object.

It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType():
url The URL specifies the location and folder to search for in the post library. Setting the URL updates the location.
vendor The case-insensitive vendor specifies the vendor of the post configuration. The default empty vendor applies to all post configurations.
