An Overview of Scripting in Autodesk Fusion Manage, the cloud PLM solution

Autodesk Fusion Manage software is Autodesk's cloud-based product lifecycle management (PLM) solution that connects people, processes, and data. Server-side scripting in Fusion Manage is a powerful and versatile feature that helps extend the Fusion Manage workflow and lifecycle capabilities to suit custom business needs. Scripts are writing in JavaScript language, and the scripting engine supports JavaScript 1.5. Scripting enables execution of specific instructions that transform the behavior of the system or enhance the functionality of the platform. Scripts can be used for process automation, data manipulation, customization, and extension of system capabilities. We'll explore various options available to configure and trigger scripts (On Workflow Transition, On Demand, On Create, On Update), different kinds of scripts (Action, Validation, and Condition scripts), and scripting functionalities (emailing, spawning items, and so on)—along with tips and tricks, best practices, and some examples.
