How to share buckets in the Autodesk Data Management API?


How might one share access to their Autodesk bucket to enable other users to view and collaborate on their uploaded models? If the Autodesk Forge Data Management API supports sharing of bucket access or something similar it was clear to me in the docs here: https://developer.autodesk.com/en/docs/data/v2/reference/http/

Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place.


Solution

  • You can share using A360 sharing tools (not via API), such as invite to a project. This is not yet available on the API.

    Via API, you can create a 3-legged token. During this process, you might share the token or refresh code. The other developer can then access your files (on the scopes you defined), but will act as the user that authorized the access (not a true sharing).
