Take a look at our customer stories to see how our customers use Autodesk Platform Services to make the future.
Autodesk Platform Services is for anyone who works with design and make data. The powerful applications built by software developers directly benefit people such as architects, building owners, engineers, product designers and more.
First, you need to sign up for one of the free or paid offerings. Then go to the Autodesk Platform Services website to get started.
Autodesk Platform Services offers developer tools and resources from the only leader with over 35 years of industry expertise in 3D design, engineering, construction and entertainment software that offers SaaS (Software as a Service) for BIM (Building Information Modelling), manufacturing, CAD (Computer Aided Design), PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) and more. In addition, it runs on the same foundational cloud services and IT infrastructure that powers Autodesk's products and solutions.
Autodesk Platform Services contains a set of RESTful APIs. As such, you can use the development languages and tools of your choice. In addition, the Forge Viewer is a client-side JavaScript component, meaning that it exposes a JavaScript API.
We build security into our products by following secure development practices throughout the product lifecycle. By doing so, Autodesk creates products that are more resilient to threats and makes it harder for attackers to develop exploits, which helps us protect our customers and their assets.
Autodesk uses active monitoring and threat intelligence to help detect and contain threats to Autodesk’s cloud.
We respond effectively to reduce customer risk. No matter how stringent we have been in building defences, attackers may still find a way to compromise them. We work proactively to prioritise and address security weaknesses so we can quickly neutralise the threat. In addition, communicating transparently with our customers so that they can take steps to protect themselves is a critical part of product security.
We comply with industry regulations and standards. We use third-party attestations to make sure we are focusing on the right elements and activities to secure our environments. Our philosophy is that compliance should be a by-product of good security.
For more information about our security practises, visit the Autodesk Trust Center. If you want to find out more about developing a secure application, take a look at our RSA conference presentation.
The Autodesk Platform Services accounts are available worldwide. General availability of APIs may vary by region. Please see the API documentation for more details.
