    Hi Lucas

    Can you give a try using below code (Replace bold letters in below code)

    Innovator innovator = this.getInnovator();

    Item partEdit = innovator.newItem("Part", "edit");

    partEdit.setAttribute("id", "4F353307B92C40B5A9AADE4B1C857CDQ"); // Change with Part Item ID

    partEdit.setPropertyAttribute("xp-cost", "set", "value"); // Update the XProperty you want to update

    partEdit.setProperty("xp-cost", "100"); // Update the XProperty and its value

    partEdit = partEdit.apply();

    return partEdit;

    Thank You

    thank you very much,

    I am also having trouble getting an xproperty value from an item. i have an id of an item and want to get the value of some of its xproperties

    i've tried with getitembyID followed by a getproperty/getpropertyAttribute(Name of my x Property)

    but without success if you also have a sample code for that or where to look for it would really help.

      Hi Lucas

      xProperties cannot be accessed similar to other properties in item. You need to run below query and then access the xProperties

      Item partGet = innovator.newItem("Part", "get");
      partGet.setAttribute("id", "4F353307B92C40B5A9AADE4B1C857CDQ"); // Change with Part Item ID
      partGet.setAttribute("select", "xp-*"); //change to specific xProperty
      partGet = partGet.apply();

      string xProp = partGet.getProperty("xp-cost")
      return partGet;

      Thanks

        hello

        thanks it is working well.

        i have a last question related to this topic, how do you create a new part with Xproperties programatically?
