Connect as2 and SolidWorks

Connecting as2 and SolidWorks for a company could enable the transfer of design data or documents between the two systems. This could support coordinated workflows, such as using engineering drawings from SolidWorks in processes managed by as2. The integration could reduce manual data entry and help maintain consistency across both platforms.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between as2 and SolidWorks around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect as2 and SolidWorks?

A company that operates both as2 and SolidWorks could benefit from enabling data exchange between the two systems. Such a connection could allow for critical information to flow automatically, reducing the need for manual data entry across platforms. Without this connection, staff may have to enter the same data into both systems, increasing the risk of errors and inconsistencies. Over time, records in each system could drift apart, leading to confusion and decisions based on outdated or mismatched information. This situation can slow down processes, create bottlenecks, and undermine confidence in the reliability of business data. If a connection were established, the types of data that could be exchanged would depend on the specific roles of as2 and SolidWorks within the business. For example, if as2 is used for business transactions and SolidWorks for product design, the company might want to transfer product specifications, part numbers, or bill of materials data between the systems. Ultimately, what can actually be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API, and is determined per situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what as2 and SolidWorks make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
