Simple workflow#

This example shows how to use PyConcentEV to perform basic operations. - Required imports - Define example data - Get a token from Ansys ID - Use API client for the Ansys ConceptEV service

Perform Required imports#

Use API client for the Ansys ConceptEV service#

Use the API client to perform basic operations on the Ansys ConceptEV service. Such as: - Check api connection is healthy. - Get the account ID and HPC ID. - Create a new project. - Create a new concept within that project.

with app.get_http_client() as client:

    print(f"API is healthy: {health}\n")
