You've heard about how Autodesk Informed Design software lets Inventor users push product configurations to Autodesk Forma for quick and easy specification by Revit end users. Are you wondering how to get started with Informed Design and its use of Codeblocks, though? Here's your chance to roll up your sleeves and get your hands on the Informed Design tools. Focusing on iLogic and Codeblocks, we'll walk through four targeted lessons to provide you with the confidence and familiarity you need to create Informed Design configurations that align with your daily work. We'll provide you with written and recorded tutorials, as well as detailed companion data sets so that once you've returned to the office, you can revisit what you've learned at AU 2024. This class is aimed at Inventor users who have some familiarity with iLogic, and who want to understand how iLogic and Informed Design Codeblocks fit together to provide a solution to inform the Revit world about manufactured designs.

According to the 2025 Autodesk Design and Make Report, training is the #1 driver of technology adoption — and AI is set to lead that charge. Join the Global eTraining founding team and AEC industry leaders for the ribbon-cutting launch of GeT’s pioneering AI-driven platform, built to close the digital skills gap, accelerate technology adoption, and confirm project-ready teams. This revolutionary platform transforms corporate training into a powerful catalyst for adoption and retention, with AI capabilities developed directly from client needs. By turning company data into actionable knowledge, it bridges the gap between information and insight. More than a feature upgrade, this is a fundamental shift toward learning that is just-in-time, just-enough, and just-for-me — advancing GeT’s mission to “learn faster, retain more, and save time.”

Hear from top AEC firms, including Jacobs, Stantec, HDR, SLB, Tetra Tech, SSOE, and STV, as they share how they’re closing the digital skills gap using Autodesk’s 3-step framework from the 2025 Design & Make Report. Learn how AI-powered training, skills gap assessments, and embedded workflows drive tech adoption at scale. Discover the ROI: improved performance, reduced rework, stronger retention, and a competitive edge to win more bids. See how firms are leveraging AI in training to learn faster, retain more, and save time. Explore how custom learning paths and custom workflow training elevate information into knowledge management by curating and pinpointing the exact combination of external training materials with internal workflows—so teams get just enough, just in time, and just for me learning that’s applied to real-world projects.

Web APIs are the backbone of today’s internet and are the most common way we connect to web-hosted platforms. By the end of this session, attendees will be familiar with the concepts and tools needed to interact with a public API, as well as have a basic understanding of how APIs work under the hood. This workshop will cover concepts such as HTTP protocol, Authentication Schemes, and API Specs. We’ll also go through a few hands-on exercises and demonstrations of how to understand and interact with Forge and other APIs, while also learning useful tools like Postman, Curl, and Chrome Dev Tools.
