Create and run scripts with the Fusion 360 API

Create and run scripts with the Fusion 360 API

Did you know that Fusion360 has a built in API where you can create, edit, or runs scripts?

A Fusion 360 user created an Export Lines script and posted it to the Forums. When you download and add this script you can then export your 2D or 3D sketches as an IGES file into your favorite injection molding simulation software.

Take a look at forum posts featuring the Fusion 360 API:
