Windchill PowerTools

Windchill PowerTools is a free debugging and productivity toolkit for PTC Windchill, built for administrators, business analysts, customization developers, and support engineers. It runs entirely in your browser — no server changes, no agents, no data ever leaves your machine. WHAT IT DOES 🔍 Type & Attribute Manager Search Search the entire TAM type tree — including attributes hidden inside collapsed branches and scrolled-out grid rows. Answer "which types have attribute X" across your whole data model in seconds, then jump straight to any match in the tree. 📊 One-Click Data Model Export Document your complete Windchill data model in a single click: every type, with its metadata and full attribute grid (display name, internal name, data type, and more), exported to one filterable Excel workbook. What used to take days of manual copying takes minutes. 🐞 JCA Debug & Customization Point Resolver Toggle jcaDebug and jsDebug from the page, then hover or click any UI component to instantly see its JSP, MVC builders, data utilities, validators, action models, and resource bundles. Copy the resolved details as JSON for tickets or handoffs. ⚡ API Tester Run same-origin Windchill REST/OData requests inside your logged-in session, with ready-made presets for Parts, Documents, CAD Documents, Change objects, and more. CSRF nonces are detected automatically for write requests. See status, timing, and prettified responses. 🩺 System Health Shortcuts Jump directly to Server Status, Cache Statistics, Log File Viewer, Top SQL, Cluster Stack Traces, and other JMX tools. 📋 Log Tools On log viewer pages, extract and copy the first error stack trace with one click — no more scrolling through thousands of lines. 📸 Screenshots & Bookmarks Capture the current page named by object number and timestamp. Bookmark any object (part, document, change notice…) with its OID for one-click return visits. PRIVACY FIRST • Zero host access at install. You explicitly add each Windchill server URL in settings, and Chrome asks you to approve that exact site. • All parsing, searching, and exporting happens locally in your browser. Nothing is transmitted anywhere. • No analytics, no tracking, no accounts. GETTING STARTED Install the extension and open its settings page. Add your Windchill base URL (e.g. https://plm.yourcompany.com/Windchill/) and grant access when prompted. Refresh your Windchill tab and click the floating 🛠 button. Free tool by Praveen Sampath.
