Use Autodesk in Okou

Autodesk Platform Services (APS, formerly Forge) API for Autodesk project files, CAD and BIM models, model translation, OSS objects, and webhooks.

Once connected, supported Autodesk actions can become steps in a reusable workflow alongside the other services your team uses. Run the workflow once, on a schedule, or when an event starts it.

What you can do with Autodesk

  • Create Autodesk project storage, folders, items, versions, or relationships.
  • Read Autodesk model formats, manifests, views, object trees, properties, and thumbnails.
  • Create an Autodesk OSS bucket.
  • Create or update Autodesk webhooks and webhook tokens, which changes future event delivery.
  • Start an Autodesk download-generation job, which can consume provider resources.
  • Request Autodesk signed derivative cookies or URLs for direct derivative access.
  • Change Autodesk OSS bucket ownership or protection settings.
  • List and inspect Autodesk webhooks.
