Implement and use the GraphicAccess API

The set of GraphicAccess application programming interfaces (API) allow users to export graphics to an XML file programmatically. Use the same set of APIs to create an Industrial Graphic in another galaxy or to overwrite an existing graphic(s) by importing the graphic definition from an XML file. The APIs can also be used to export the configured references or GPI for a graphic and importing multiple XML files from a folder location.

Before using the set of GraphicAccess APIs, you must use the GRAccess Toolkit to log in and connect to an Galaxy repository.

The APIs are available through the following interfaces:

IGraphicAccess – Export and import an Industrial Graphic

IGraphicAccess2 – Export the substitutable strings and configured references for an Industrial Graphic

IGraphicAccess3 – Export the GPI of an Industrial Graphic

IGraphicAccess4 – Import Industrial Graphics from a folder location

For details about how to use these APIs, see IGraphicAccess in the System Platform help file.
