@brunoperdigao said in How to connect to a local CDE using the OpenCDE Documents API:
Hi, this functionality was released (https://www.solibri.com/articles/solibri-25-12-0-release-notes#:~:text=Support for Custom%2C Private CDEs and BCF connections%3A) but I can’t find any information on how to create the configuration file. Does anyone know where I can find this? I already tried the e-mail pointed as support, but didn’t get any reply.
Hello!
Solibri handles the creation of the configuration files for custom, private connections and provides those to you. The email to use for that is [email protected], I checked now but didn’t see anything in the inbox from your Society linked email.
In short, our local/private connections support bSI standards (Foundation, OpenCDE and BCF), so as long as the private connection is built following those standards, we can support that in Solibri.
For all new connections (private and public), we first test in BETA before going live in production. Overall for a private connection this doesn’t really matter to us, but we follow the same procedure anyway and allow you to test in beta. Anyone who will be testing on your end needs to be enrolled in beta, for which we grant beta licenses during the development stage.
Instructions for joining BETA are here:

In order to add a server (public or private), we need the following information about the server:
Name: MyProjectServer
URL: https://api.myproject.com
Client ID: 12345-client-id-sample
Client Secret: abcde12345secretkey
Scopes: read, write, manage
Flavor: bcf1.0 or bcf2.0
Once you provide these, we’ll send over a config file to be loaded in Solibri, and you can then select the private connection and begin testing.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask!
Kind regards,
Toni
