sch_get_netlist
Export raw schematic netlist data in a chosen format, like Allegro, PADS, or EasyEDA, for specific netlist exports or full raw dumps.
Instructions
Get the raw schematic netlist in the specified format. WARNING: The JLCEDA format response is very large (100KB+). Prefer sch_get_connectivity for connectivity questions — it returns the same net/pin data in a much more compact format with resolved part names. Only use this tool when you need a specific netlist export format (Allegro, PADS, etc.) or the full raw netlist data.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | No | Netlist format type | |
| limit | No | Truncate result array to at most N items | |
| fields | No | Project results to only these top-level keys. Response includes _availableFields showing all keys. IMPORTANT: Always specify fields when you know what you need — without it, responses include every property and can be extremely large (100KB+), wasting context. | |
| filter | No | Keep items matching all conditions (AND). Exact: {key: value}, prefix glob: {key: "R*"}, OR: {key: ["a","b"]} | |
| document | Yes | Target document UUID — auto-switches to this document before executing. Get UUIDs from list_instances or editor_get_open_tabs. | |
| instance_id | No | Target EasyEDA instance ID (8-char hex). Required when multiple instances are connected. Omit when only one instance is connected (auto-selected). Use list_instances to see connected instances. |
