Connects to Autodesk Docs, Autodesk Construction Cloud or Autodesk Build to manage files and folders.

Jump to Configuration

Typical Uses

  • Managing files on Autodesk Docs by uploading, downloading, and deleting files and folders
  • Transferring file contents into or out of an attribute in FME
  • Retrieving file and folder names, paths, and other information from Autodesk Docs to use elsewhere in a workspace.

How does it work?

The AutodeskDocsConnector uses your Autodesk account credentials to perform various management tasks on Autodesk Docs:

Action Task

Delete

Delete files and folders.

Download

Download a file or folder to an attribute, file, or folder.

List

List the item details for the contents of a folder.

Upload

Upload a file, folder, or the contents of an attribute.

Once valid account credentials have been provided, you may browse to available content for the selected Action.

Authentication

Autodesk authentication has two components -

  • One-time addition of FME in the Autodesk App Store.
  • Creating a Web Connection in FME for recurring authentication.

See Using Web Connections and Adding FME through the Autodesk App Store for Use in the AutodeskDocsConnector.

Usage Notes

  • This transformer cannot move or copy files between different locations. Consider using multiple connectors for these tasks, by downloading files/folders and re-uploading them to a new location.
