Hi,

retrieving pin configuration and netlist from configuration bitstream isn't supported by vendor provided or commonly available tools. Scientific papers demonstrated however basic feasibility for unencrypted configuration files.

Data direction and state of IO-pins of configured FPGA can be observed in operation with boundary scan tool.
