(Formely I/O).

This is a Python sample code for Design Automation API (v2). It is a very short demo at this moment which shows getting token and checking the status of one existing workitem only. More functions will be added in the future.

• Download Python. The code can work with old version such as 2.7, but it is recommended to use the new version.

1. Forge Account: Learn how to create a Forge Account, activate subscription and create an app at this tutorial. Make sure to select the service Design Automation.
2. Make a note with the credentials (client id and client secret) of the app.
3. Follow the steps on API Basic to create a test codes with full workflow: create activity, create workitem, create app package (if needed). Make a note with the workitem id. Another choice is to check some samples (prefix with "design automation") on Autodesk-Forge Github Repository such as design.automation-workflow-winform-sample. Build the sample and get a workitem id.

1. run acadio.py with the credentials and workitem id like:

• • acad-da.py --client_id [you client id] --client_secret [your client secret] --workitem_id [your work item id]

2. wait for the response about work item status. It will also download the log file

• Design Automation API help

• Blogs on Python & Forge

• as of writing, only AutoCAD Design Automation is released. While the skeleton of this sample could apply with other products (such as Revit, Inventor) after replacing the endpoints.
