API for user and assignment management

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I just discovered the new plan to push named users instead of network license, and as an IT admin in charge of managing Autodesk licenses servers across the 10 countries were we are operating, I have real concerns on what will happen with this new model forced to us.

I have already raised a similar question in the past since we are using BIM360 and I wanted to be able to invite/assign/remove users as they come and leave our company. The answer I got was that no API was available and all those steps needed to be done MANUALLY in the admin interface (CEP).

Will such an API will be available when named users will be applied?

If you manage 1000+ licenses and with a turnover of 40%+ per year, it will become a full-time job to assign/revoke those licenses manually.

Otherwise, it's maybe time to look for other alternatives...

Almost done with 2023 and still no word. I'm beginning to think they were being less than truthful.

Is there any update on the user management API, that was mentioned in this thread?

There haven't been any updates since then.

I had the opportunity to speak directly with an APS API engineer at the Autodesk DevCon X Seoul 2024 event. They confirmed that there is currently no API available for user management.

However, they mentioned that something similar might be on the roadmap, although they couldn't provide a specific release date.

Given the high interest in this feature, I wanted to share this update from the engineer to keep everyone informed.

Thank you.
