Customer-managed fleet (CMF) infrastructure offers end users the flexibility to use their existing on-prem hardware infrastructure or cloud-based environments to perform VRED rendering. Slides and live demos will illustrate how AWS Deadline Cloud for VRED can be integrated into an existing pipeline. This is illustrated through interfaces, including stand-alone tools, the Deadline Cloud API, and a render job submitter. Features highlighted will include grouping workers to fleets, assigning render job prioritization and scheduling, as well as monitoring progress through the Deadline Cloud monitor desktop application and AWS Management Console.

Discover how to use the AEC Data Model API to access and use your Revit model data more effectively. Learn how this cloud-based API lets you extract precise information from Revit models. Understand how to connect to the AEC Data Model API with GraphQL, enabling stakeholders across your organization to interact with model data without opening Revit. This session will walk you through building a complete application that accesses Revit data through the cloud API, processes it with artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to identify optimization opportunities, and creates actionable dashboards. You'll learn practical implementation techniques for AI-enabled tools that empower team members across disciplines to interrogate model data through intuitive interfaces. The session will cover GraphQL query structure, authentication, data processing, and modern AI integration approaches that transform technical complexity into accessible insights.

This class will guide you through the new, exciting, cloud-based API for InfraWorks 360 software. We will cover how to get started and extract data from the model, how to generate report from the extracted information, and how to integrate with other providers—all by reading InfraWorks 360 software models using the REST API. Previous programming knowledge is required (Microsoft C# and Microsoft .NET), and knowledge of REST and the JavaScript API is recommended.

Prefabrication and automation in offsite wood construction requires highly detailed building models while maintaining performance. This puts constraints on both the model creation phase, as well as the output phase. The extracted data, as well as the fabrication process automation data needs to be accessible by all stakeholders - the builders, prefabricators and project managers. By combining Autodesk products and APIs, hsbcad has developed vastly improved workflows for its customers and their stakeholders. This class describes the process that hsbcad - as an AutoCAD, and Revit plugin development company - has gone through in order to become a web development company. We will describe the innovation that Autodesk Forge has triggered at hsbcad; and our evolution from using the Forge Viewer with BIM360 integration, to a full featured web application that uses the Design Automation API for Revit to digest Revit models and link them up with existing hsbcad desktop and cloud functionality.

Prefabrication and automation in offsite construction requires building models to be rich in data. The generation of construction drawings, creation of a bill of materials and the application of fabricated information is required in the model. In wood construction for example, it requires modeling of accurate processing (precutting) and assembly of prefabricated items including tooling (e.g. nailing and milling operations). All this, including derived data in the form of CNC files, shop drawings, etc., needs to be accessible by all stakeholders - the builders, prefabricators and project managers. By combining Autodesk products and APIs, hsbcad has developed improved workflows to create and modify rich model content. Revit content is able to enrich cloud based BIM that drives CNC equipment and improves on site processes. This leads to increased efficiency and cost control for the complete construction process.Joint AU/Forge DevCon class

The Model Properties and Data Exchange APIs are recent additions to Autodesk Forge. They allow us to access design data in a more controlled manner, such as by filtering, searching, and comparing models between versions. Instead of sending the entire model, you can select only the portion that your collaborator needs. Together with the Model Derivative API and the Design Automation API, we now have more options to access design data. However, can you tell which one to use for your specific needs? Do you know differences among those APIs? In this session, we’ll introduce you to the Model Properties and Data Exchange APIs. We’ll then compare various options we have to access design data. We’ll show the examples of use cases, and discuss potential application areas that weren’t possible until now.

Learn how to use the power of Autodesk Forma Connect, which allows users to create their own custom app integrations without the need to write code. In this class, we’ll discuss how to connect siloed data to integrated data to support efficient EPC delivery. Specifically, we’ll discuss various applications of the “recipes” (workflows) to extract files and metadata within the common data environment (CDE)—i.e., BIM 360, Autodesk Forma, and Autodesk Assemble—to move to platforms such as Aconex and Microsoft SharePoint, and comply with ISO 19650 requirements. Additionally, the extracted data can be used to automate creation of dashboards to monitor progress of design quantity takeoffs, construction installation, issues resolution, and most other data available via the Autodesk Forge APIs. Recipes can be used for a single project or at an account level (across several projects). Find out how Autodesk Forma Connect can help you save time and reduce errors by automating many business processes.

For years, companies have been investing in sustainability initiatives like reduced energy consumption and efficient use of resources. Mostly, sustainability has been directed toward tackling process-caused environmental impacts. However, the focus must shift to a product’s components. Companies need to target sustainability in the design phase, not just in the operational phase. Whenever the design starts, sustainability must be a feature of the product and not an afterthought. Currently, there are 28 million CAD users globally, and an opportunity to capture up to 10Gton of CO2eq per year. In this talk, we’ll discuss how to empower designers to improve the environmental performances of their projects by delivering trusted sustainability insights in the context of their design tools. Find out how the SimaPro API can extract all required information using Fusion Data and Autodesk Forge APIs to calculate the environmental impact and return results to the designer in real time.
