Happy Halloween!

http://forge.autodesk.com/ - Autodesk Forge  is our collection of Application Program Interfaces (APIs) that we use to develop our own web services. As part of our Forge efforts, we share those APIs (including documentation and code samples) with customers and 3^rd party developers (the Forge community) that want to leverage years' worth of legacy and current data associated with projects.

One area of Forge is the https://developer.autodesk.com/en/docs/data/v2/overview/" rel="noopener noreferrer - Data Management API  that gives developers a unified and consistent way for them to access data across https://team.bim360.com/ - BIM 360 Team , https://fusionteam.autodesk.com/ - Fusion Team , http://www.autodesk.com/products/bim-360-docs/features - BIM 360 Docs , https://a360.autodesk.com/ - A360 Personal , and the Object Storage Service. The Object Storage Service allows their applications to download and upload raw files (such as PDF, XLS, DWG, or RVT). Coupling this API with the https://developer.autodesk.com/en/docs/model-derivative/v2/overview/" rel="noopener noreferrer - Model Derivative API  (another part of Forge), they 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 3^rd-party process. Or, they might want to superimpose a Fusion model and a building model to use in the https://developer.autodesk.com/en/docs/viewer/v2/overview/" rel="noopener noreferrer - Viewer  (yet another part of Forge). ^{[ https://developer.autodesk.com/en/docs/data/v2/overview/ - Forge ]}
