  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured

Capabilities

Tools 4

convert_cad

Convert a file opened with inspect_cad to STEP, STL or GLB and return a download link that expires in 30 minutes. STEP is a solid B-Rep when the source was read exactly; otherwise it is a triangulated STEP that CAD software cannot edit as a solid. STL and GLB are always triangulated meshes.

Discovered
inspect_cad

Open a CAD file on CADProps servers and report its format, size, volume, area, units and accuracy, with an interactive 3D preview. Supported: 3DM, 3DXML, 3MF, 7Z, AMF, ASM, BMP, CATDRAWING, CATPART, CATPRODUCT, CGM, DFT, DRW, DWF, DWFX, DWG, DXF, EMF, F3D, GCODE, GIF, GLB, GLTF, GZ, IAM, ICO, IDW, IFC, IFCZIP, IGES, IGS, IPT, JPG, JT, NEU, OBJ, PAR, PCX, PDF, PLT, PLY, PNG, PRC, PRT, PSM, RAR, SAB, SAT, SLDASM, SLDDRW, SLDPRT, STEP, STL, STP, SVG, TGA, TGZ, TIFF, U3D, UNV, VDA, VDAFS, VRML, WEBP, WMF, WRL, WRZ, X3D, X3DV, X_B, X_T, ZIP. Creo .prt files with supported saved triangle strips show a partial 3D preview with unverified units and no physical measurements. Other Creo .prt files, Creo .asm files and CATIA .CATProduct files show only the thumbnail saved in the file when available. Call with no file to get a one-time upload link. Files are deleted about one hour after upload.

Discovered
open_in_workspace

Return a one-time link (valid 15 minutes) that opens this file in the CADProps web workspace for measuring, sectioning and sharing. After it is opened, the chat preview and links for this file stop working.

Discovered
refresh_view_token

Used by the CADProps preview to renew its read-only token.
