Tokens

Custom Tokens

Use the hooks in the tokens_hook.py file to add custom tokens to the multiple Add Token drop-downs available throughout the application. The tokens_hook.py file is located in /opt/Autodesk/<flame version>/python, but it can be moved to any supported location scanned for Python hooks like /opt/Autodesk/shared/python.

Two hooks are available:

Function Description
get_hook_token_list Hook called to get the list of available tokens for a context.
resolve_hook_token Hook called to resolve a token to its actual value.
