Graph.connect Method

Parent Object: Graph

PreviewThis functionality is provided as a preview of intended future API capabilities. You are encouraged to use it and report any problems or suggestions using the Fusion API and Scripts forum.

Because this is a preview of future functionality, there is the possibility that it will change, which will possibly break any existing programs that use this functionality. Because of that, you should never deliver any programs that use any preview capabilities. For a distributed program, you should wait until it has moved from preview to released state.


Defined in namespace "adsk::volume" and the header file is <Volume/Volumetric/Graph.h>

Description

Create a connection between nodes.

Syntax

"graph_var" is a variable referencing a Graph object.
returnValue = graph_var.connect(outputNode, outputPinIndex, inputNode, inputPinIndex)

Parameters

Name Type Description
outputNode GraphNode The node where the connection starts.
outputPinIndex uinteger The index of the output pin on the start node.
inputNode GraphNode The node where the connection ends.
inputPinIndex uinteger The index of the input pin on the end node.

Samples

Name Description
Volumetric Custom Feature API Sample

Demonstrates how to create a Volumetric Custom Feature using the API for graph creation.

To run the sample script, have a document open in Fusion’s DESIGN workspace. This script will create a component with a box by sketching then extruding that sketch. It will then use that box as a boundary body and create a Volumetric Custom Feature.

The script will the create a gyroid lattice using the Volumetric Model API with the appropriate Graphs, Nodes and Connections for a minimal example. Finally, the script will convert that Volumetric Model to Mesh using the API and the VolumetricModelToMeshFeature.

Version

Introduced in version May 2025
