Autodesk has always had a variety of ways of letting users add functions to software and to access drawing data. Most Autodesk programs have one or more APIs – such as AutoLISP and ObjectARx in AutoCAD. Even so, these didn’t allow programs to easily communicate among one another. The Forge Platform is Autodesk’s massive effort to reverse the Babel of APIs by establishing a single API for all pro grams, through the cloud.
