Convert DWG to STP using C# REST API

This tutorial describes how to convert DWG to STP using C# REST API. You will develop a DWG to STEP file converter using C# RESTful Service with the help of a .NET-based Cloud SDK. This conversion is helpful in importing AutoCAD models into mechanical CAD applications.

Prerequisite

Steps to Convert DWG to STP Online using C# REST API

  1. Create the CadApi object using the user ID and secret for converting DWG to STP
  2. Set paths for source DWG file and output STP file
  3. Read the input DWG file into a memory stream and initialize it
  4. Create the PutDrawingSTPRequest object by setting the memory stream in the constructor
  5. Convert the DWG file to STP by calling the PutDrawingSTP() method
  6. Save the stream from the API response into the local STP file

The above steps explain the development of a DWG to STP converter online using C# Low Code API. Use the secret key/ID and base URL to create an object of the CadApi, set the input/output paths for DWG and STP, respectively, and read the input DWG file into the memory stream. Create the PutDrawingSTPRequest object for performing the conversion and save the output on the disk.

Code for DWG to STP Converter using C# .NET-based API

This code shows the transformation of file format from DWG to STP file using C# REST Interface. The conversion can be performed on files already stored on the Cloud. You may try other arguments of the PutDrawingSTPRequest constructor, such as Cloud storage name, export options, and output path, to customize the output.

This tutorial has guided us on the conversion of the DWG file to a STEP file. For converting DWG to SVG, refer to the article Convert DWG to SVG using C# REST API.
