Welcome to the SOLIDWORKS Manage API. In order to access the API, access to a SOLIDWORKS Manage Professional Contributor, CAD Editor or Universal (Processor) license is required. The API is supported running on 2026 SP0 version databases or newer.
SOLIDWORKS Manage provides a unique set of product lifecycle management tools to enable product information to be distributed to different areas of a business. It is seamlessly integrated with the file management capabilities of SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional. It adds powerful BOM, project, process, document and item management capabilities along with interactive dashboards and reports, via desktop and web interfaces.
The SOLIDWORKS Manage web service is an Application Programming Interface (API) which allows you to read and write information in SOLIDWORKS Manage. The API contains functions that you can call from many programming languages. Examples have been provided in C# and VB.NET to get you started. These functions provide direct access to the SOLIDWORKS Manage environment. It is assumed that you are familiar with at least one of these programming languages.
