Question Related to Autocad File:

We are trying to find files uniquely on forge and desktop application Autocad for that we are using FingerprintGuid https://help.autodesk.com/view/OARX/2022/ENU/?guid=OARX-ManagedRefGuide-Autodesk_AutoCAD_DatabaseServices_Database_FingerprintGuid on the autocad side.

Currently we are not able to access it using the forge api.

We tried out the following ways.

  1. Added property inside the custom tab and extended data on the autocad file but this is still not accessible using forge api.
    We tried out below Forge API’s

Hi @VeereshHuvinahalli,

The {urn}/metadata/{modelGuid}/properties REST API requires an Authorization header in the request. Please make sure it is passed to the fetch method. Unfortunately your screenshot is broken and I can’t see how you used it.

For those two other Autodesk-specific questions please refer to https://forge.autodesk.com/en/docs/oauth/v2/developers_guide/overview/ and External authentication. Those two resources should help you setting up the authentication.

Thanks,
Vitalii
