Setting Up the PDX OIEP

Important: With the 2023.3 release, the JSON outbound integration that uses the 'Product Data Exchange' delivery method will no longer be supported. It is advised that the individual who maintains PDX integration configurations set up the new STEPXML outbound integration that uses the 'Product Data Exchange 2' delivery method and disable the old JSON outbound integration before the 2023.3 release.

The STEPXML-based OIEP produces cross-contextual STEPXML files that get enriched to make it self-contained. The final payload is then sent to PDX through the external API available, where it gets parsed into PDX-native JSON and imported.

The following topics describe how this integration is set up and configured to transfer the different types of product information that comprises a product record.
