Autodesk File Viewer for design model records

Review translated RVT, DWG, NWD and related design files from the same ArchiMesh project model records that hold file status, history and permissions.

Viewer workflow for translated Autodesk files

The code loads Autodesk Viewer only for model records with APS viewer data and requests model-specific viewer tokens before opening the URN.

From translated file to model review

Autodesk file viewing is handled as a project 3D model workflow, not as a disconnected file link.

01

Register the model

The project model record stores the file type, model name and APS status used by the viewer workflow.

02

Check viewer readiness

If the APS URN is not ready, the history view shows the pending translation state instead of pretending the model can open.

03

Open the APS viewer

When the URN exists, ArchiMesh initializes Autodesk Viewer and loads the document node with an authenticated token.

Design file viewing in context

Review model files, status and history without separating design files from project controls.

Keep proprietary design files in context

Treat translated Autodesk files as project model records with history and permissions.

Be honest about readiness

Show pending translation status when a viewer URN is not available yet.

Use authenticated viewer access

Model token requests are tied to the specific model being opened.

Design models support coordination

Use design file viewing alongside IFC review, document control, clash reports and project search.

Review design files from the project record.

ArchiMesh connects Autodesk file viewing with model history, permissions, documents and BIM coordination.
