The Product Definition homepage has been redesigned to make your workflow easier to navigate. You can continue to create and manage your Product Definitions as before, now with a clearer layout and quicker access to learning and support resources.
The updated homepage organizes your Product Definitions in an easy-to-scan table and brings helpful resources—including documentation, forums, self-paced learning, and Sample Content—into the same experience.
What’s Changed?
The redesigned homepage provides a clearer way to manage your Product Definitions and find supporting resources without changing the core Product Definition workflow.
Product Definition Home
What you'll see:
A clearer view of your Product Definitions. View and manage your Product Definitions from an easy-to-scan table, with quick access to edit, duplicate, and delete actions.
Learning and support resources in one place. Quickly access documentation, forums, self-paced learning, and Sample Content from the homepage.
A more consistent interface. The updated experience uses the Autodesk Weave design system for greater consistency across Informed Design.
Why This Matters
The redesigned homepage reduces the amount of navigation needed to manage your Product Definitions and find help. By bringing key actions and learning resources together, the experience makes it easier to understand where to start and where to go when you need additional guidance.
