Fusion 360 API part analysis question

Hello!  I am getting started with the fusion 360 API and was wondering if there was any way to run or get results from the radii analysis (or any of the other analysis tools).

None of the analysis commands are exposed by the API because those commands only provide visual feedback and aren't particularly useful in most API workflows.  However, there are lower-level functions that allow you to evaluate the geometry and get various information.  It's functions like these that the commands use to extract the needed information to build the display.

 

You'll want to read this topic in the online help, paying particular attention to the "Evaluating Topology Objects". It lists some common evaluations functions but there are more, including getting the curvature of a surface at a particular point.
