component list extraction

[97ahnchanwoo]

Hi, I 'm currently designing 3 axis milling machine for fun.

The design uses a lot of pre-manufactured parts. 

What I 'm want to know is if there is any way to extract components list from fusion 360 design, so that I can automatically get estimate cost of the parts by web automation and parsing.

For a quick, but limited list, you can use the ExtractBOM programming sample that's delivered with Fusion 360.  Run the "Scripts and Add-Ins" command and then look for ExtractBOM in the "Sample Scripts" list.  Select it and then click "Run".  It will display a BOM of the currently active assembly.  It's just meant to illustrate parts of the API that provide access to the assembly structure and some part information and was designed to be a full feature BOM tool.  You can also check the Autodesk App Store.  When I searched for BOM, there were several apps that showed up.
