Is there a way to add users to BIM projects with all available services? Using Forge BIM 360 API


Our BIM 360 environment we have four available Services(Document Management, Model Coordination, Design Collaboration and Insight). But in the documentation projects/:project_id/users/import it had only has Document Management available in the available services. Is this just a known limitation? Or is there any other way to achieve adding all services?


Solution

  • Unfortunately, it is a known limitations. We have a wish logged against this:

    ACSADMIN-530 (was HQ-3034): “API wish: adding users beyond Docs”

    Not truly a workaround, but one way (in desperate need) might be to add as an admin using the other endpoints:

    https://forge.autodesk.com/en/docs/bim360/v1/reference/http/projects-project_id-users-POST/

    you can find a list of services listed on this page: https://github.com/Autodesk-Forge/forge-bim360.project.setup.tool the table toward the bottom.
