OAuth 3-legged automation for access to the Forge platform via the CLI
autodesk-cli-auth-tool.php is used to 3-legged auth and re-auth against Forge generating tokens for access to A360/Fusion Team/BIM360 Team files.
There are two usage paradigms:
- Initial authentication opening the browser and allowing the user to authorize their account and get a token with an expiration time.
- Refresh authentication allowing the token to be refreshed before the expiration time.
**Note: If authentication is not refreshed before the token expires, then initial authentication is required
php autodesk-cli-auth-tool.php [OPTIONS]
-m --mode=[initial|refresh]
-t --tokenfile=<file path to store the current token and expiry>
-k --keyfile=<file path to the location of a file with your Forge client id and secret>
- Initial:
php autodesk-cli-auth-tool.php --mode=initial --tokenfile=\"temp.txt\" --keyfile=\"keyfile.txt\" - Refresh:
php autodesk-cli-auth-tool.php --mode=refresh --tokenfile=\"temp.txt\" --keyfile=\"keyfile.txt\"
The Key File format should be a plain-text file with the name of the variable followed by its value in the file separated by an equals sign (e.g. NAME=value):
FORGE_CLIENT_ID
FORGE_CLIENT_SECRET
FORGE_CALLBACK_URL
