Autodesk Vault 2026 Highlights
Project and data archive
We’re happy to announce the new project and data archive feature in Autodesk Vault 2026. This feature allows you to manage large amounts of data more easily with the ability to archive data when designs and projects are completed or obsolete.

Trash bin
Managing deleted files with Autodesk Vault PDM is easier than ever with the new trash bin functionality. This functionality helps you avoid losing essential files that are accidentally deleted. The trash bin provides temporary storage and settings that allow users to restore deleted data.

Hyperlink user-defined property
With the new hyperlink user-defined property in Autodesk Vault 2026, you can now add a clickable URL or email address in user-defined properties for greater convenience. You can use these embedded hyperlinks to a website or even a linked record in another system like Autodesk Fusion Manage.

Enhanced copy design
Enhanced copy design helps you prevent accidentally copying library files and creating unnecessary duplicates. Users can reuse library files on file selection or based on a branch in the copy design grid.

Vault Data API
Extending Vault’s ability to integrate is now easier with the new Vault Data APIs. This set of modern cloud APIs allows you to integrate Vault with other business systems, providing open and extensible access to data in Vault.

Automatic account disablement
Administrators of Vault can take advantage of the new Automatic account disablement feature by setting an expiration date for when a user will no longer need access to Vault or its data. On that date, the user account will be disabled automatically, ensuring you protect your Vault data and only give access to the right people.
