Autodesk Fusion Manage software helps users make data-driven decisions by keeping data consistent and enforcing processes. With all the data that Fusion Manage can track, we need a way to see what the data means and what's happening. Fusion Manage has built-in reporting features, but they may not always show the data the way you want or need. You can use Microsoft Power BI with your Fusion Manage tenant to get more options for how to display your data and who can access it. In this session, we'll show you how to use Autodesk Platform Services and R script to get data from all your Fusion Manage workspaces and create reports and dashboards for different users in your company. The R script we use in this class came from a previous AU presentation for BIM 360 software, but we've updated it for Fusion Manage and V2 authentication.

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.

Climate change is the issue of our generation. How do we scale up the deployment of biogas upgrading plants that can help society decarbonize the energy sector?
