Repetitive IDs' in XML and JSON export files for members in Idea Statica Connection

[Idonotuse]

Hi @stefanokusumaIDEA,

Goal:
Read all connection data (Members, Plates, Bolts and Welds) automatically from the given Idea Statica File using python api.

Problem:
Same IDs' were allotted to different members in both json and xml files which were exported from the idea statica file. I've also verified this by extracting the files manually from the developer tab in idea statica connection.

Additional issue pertaining to xml and json files was already raised earlier (#828 (comment)).

Reference Files:
Reference Files.zip

Version:
V24.1.3.2515

Note:
The issue is not consistent with all the files. I couldn't find any particular pattern for it. Moreover, if there is an alternative to xml or json files (for reading data) kindly let me know.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi @nathanlukeIDEA,

Is there any alternative way to get the IDs' or extract the information from Idea statica File?

Thanks in Advance.

Hi @Idonotuse, I believe this issue is fixed now. Can you please confirm?

Hi @nathanlukeIDEA,

The issue has been resolved. However, one edge case I noticed is that when a connection file is extracted from Checkbot and a new member is added within the same file, the new member is assigned the same internal ID as the last defined member.
