Conventions are available for some default Onshape properties and for all custom properties when creating export rules. Begin typing any letter into the Convention field to see a list of valid properties.

Note that:

  • Conventions use expressions in the form of ${<property-name>} to include an active metadata property in the naming convention.
  • Conventions use camel case, so if the rule name is Not revision managed, the convention rule is ${notRevisionManaged}.

  • Valid properties are shown in blue, while invalid and inactive properties are shown in red. Special characters may be added to the convention, for example, the colon and dash in: ${document.name}: ${partNumber} ‑${revision}
