Autodesk Construction Cloud (Beta)
The Autodesk Construction Cloud connector enables App Xchange users to access and manage data across various Autodesk platforms.
This connector is available as an early public BETA for customers to preview, evaluate, and leverage in their integrations and connected workflows. This page will be updated when the connector is available for non-beta usage following evaluation of user feedback during the beta period.
This connector provides a unified and consistent way to access data across BIM 360 Team, Fusion Team (formerly known as A360 Team), BIM 360 Docs, A360 Personal, and the Object Storage Service.
With this API, you can accomplish a number of workflows, including accessing a Fusion model in Fusion Team and getting an ordered structure of items, IDs, and properties for generating a bill of materials in a 3rd-party process. You might also want to superimpose a Fusion model and a building model to use in the viewer.
It supports data types including folders, projects, project users, RFIs, RFI attachments, RFI comments, specs, project specs, submittal items, submittal packages, and submittal item types.
Users can retrieve the above data types; add RFIs, comments, and attachments; create or update folders and items; and export PDF files.
