Allow Users to Extract Physical Properties On Demand Outside the Autodesk Fusion 360 Canvas

SimaPro, a sustainability partner, and ProtoTech, a technical consultant and reseller, are building a POC web app to demo at AU 2023, showing a web-based sustainability analysis workflow of an Autodesk Fusion 360 design. SimaPro requires mass, weight, and material to perform the sustainability analysis. Mass and weight are mass properties, meaning the company needs to extract and store mass properties for components in PIM so that SimaPro can access this data to perform its analysis in a web-based environment outside of Fremont. Currently, physical properties are extracted only inside the Fusion 360 canvas. PPE is a scalable solution that enables users to extract physical properties on-demand outside the Fusion 360 canvas using GraphQL APIs. Physical properties extraction trigger is also integrated with Fusion 360 workflows like on-milestone creation, as well as view physical properties in Fusion Team.
