The Web Service connector enables real-time data exchange between the PLM system and D365 F&SCM via HTTP requests. This approach removes file-based dependencies and supports on-demand transactions.

Note

  • The Alternative connector Web Service is supported for both PTC Windchill and Siemens Teamcenter integrations.

  • The connector type selected depends on the PLM export mechanism and enterprise integration architecture, not on the PLM system itself.
