  This presentation reports on the status of beamline digital twins at BESSY II. To provide a comprehensive beamline simulation experience we have leveraged BESSY II’s x-ray tracing program, RAY-UI[*], widely used for beamline design and commissioning and best adapted to the requirements of our soft X-ray source BESSY II. We created a Python API, RayPyNG, capable to convert our library of beamline configuration files produced by RAY-UI into Python objects[**]. This allows to embed beamline simulation into Bluesky[***], our experimental controls software ecosystem. All optical elements are mapped directly into the Bluesky device abstraction (Ophyd). Thus beamline operators can run simulations and operate real systems by a common interface, allowing to directly compare theory predictions with real-time results[****]. We will discuss the relevance of this digital twin for process tuning in terms of enhanced beamline performance and streamlined operations. We will shortly discuss alternatives to RAY-UI like other software packages and ML/AI surrogate models.
