Fusion Team Integration
The Fusion Automation API enables access to your personal data and your team’s shared data stored on Fusion Team.
Personal Access Tokens
The Automation API uses Personal Access Tokens (PAT) for authentication and data access. When you create a Fusion WorkItem, it inherits the same data permissions as the PAT owner. This means your script can read, write, and create Fusion data across all teams the PAT owner belongs to, just like in the Fusion desktop application.
For instructions on creating a PAT, see the Execute a Fusion Script walkthrough in the How-to Guide.
Accessing Files
To access an existing file, you need the file’s URN (unique identifier). Here are four ways to obtain a file’s URN:
- Data Management API
Use this Autodesk Platform Services API for unified data access across all Autodesk platforms. For more information, see the documentation.
- Fusion Desktop
Navigate to your file and type “data.property” in the Text Command Window. Look for the “Lineage URN” field.
- Fusion Team Web Interface
Navigate to the file in your browser. The long string in the address bar is a Base64-encoded URN that you’ll need to decode.
- Within a Script
Use the
idproperty of theDataFileobject to get the URN of the currently active file.
