Please tell me how to omit "Auditing Mechanical Data" process or call correct commands after auditing.
I'm evaluating autocad addon program on Design automation API. My addon works correct for Autocad dwg, but It doesn't work for ACM dwg . (Please refer below logs.)

Will this problem occur if testing with other drawings, or only happen with specific drawing? In addition, may I know the main job your addon does?
I tried to test with simple test: one main dwg with two xref dwg. All of them are created inside AutoCAD Mechanical. I also added some Mechanical entities such as title block. Next, I created an activity with the script below:
"Script": "PDFSHX 1 _layoutcreateviewport 1 xref u acadM-xref2 _tilemode 0 -export _pdf _all result.pdf\n"
It opens the main dwg, unloads one xref because your log shows it looks your addon will unload some xrefs. Finally my script export the drawing to PDF.
The workitem works well. The log is as below
workitem log for operating AutoCAD Mechanical drawings
So, the failure at your side would be a specific problem that is related with your addon or drawings. Could you provide more information such as the main workflow your addon does and demo drawings. Please email us at forge.help@autodesk.com if there are confidential information.
