Manufacturing Data Model APIs V2.0 is now generally available!

What are the Manufacturing Data Model APIs?

Manufacturing Data Model is a way to store your manufacturing design data in the cloud, making it easily accessible. The Manufacturing Data Model APIs enable granular access to the data model.

You can read, write, and extend design data through cloud-based workflows, all this without the need for desktop authoring applications like Autodesk Fusion.

What are the benefits of the Manufacturing Data Model APIs?

Leveraging the power of the cloud, the Manufacturing Data APIs allow you to access granular, transparent data, rather than opaque data. Enjoy benefits such as:

  • A standardized collaboration model
  • Efficient data access and manipulation, no costly transfers or storage
  • The right data at the right time, reducing versioning overhead
  • The right data for the right people, so only needed data is exposed to collaborators

What can you do with Manufacturing Data Model APIs?

Access Bill of Materials

Use Manufacturing Data Model to access a design's bill of materials (BOM) and navigate to the part hierarchy within the model.

Integrate with ERP systems

Via accessing the BOM of a design, you can traverse the hierarchy of parts within the model for integration with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems using unique part identifiers.

Augment the data model with custom properties

The Custom Properties API allows you to add metadata for things like process information, IDs, or manufacturing related data from external systems. Your custom properties are also visible natively in various Fusion experiences.
