Configure Autodesk ID Sign-In for the Vault Thin Client

The Vault Thin Client lets users sign in with an Autodesk ID. Sign-in turns on extra features, such as Autodesk Assistant. To turn it on, set up an Autodesk Platform Services (APS) application. Then add its Client ID to the Vault Server.

Prerequisites

An Autodesk account that can create APS applications.
Access to each Vault server where you will turn on Autodesk ID sign-in.

In a web browser, go to https://aps.autodesk.com.
Sign in with your Autodesk account. If you do not have one, create it, then sign in.
Select an APS plan tier. The Free tier is sufficient to configure Autodesk ID sign-in for the Vault Thin Client.
Create a developer hub. You must create a developer hub before you can create an APS application.

Note: For details, see the Autodesk Platform Services Create an App guide.

Create a New APS Application

In the top-right corner of the page, select your profile, then choose My Applications.
Click Create application.
In Application name, enter a name (for example, Vault Thin Client).
In Application type, select Desktop, Mobile, Single-Page App.
Click Create.

Configure Application Settings

On the application details page, set these options:

Under Client Credentials, copy the Client ID and save it. You need it later to set up the Vault Server.
Under General Settings, add one Callback URL for each Vault server that will use Autodesk ID sign-in. Use this format. Replace [ServerName] with the host name or IP address of the Vault server:

https://[ServerName]/AutodeskTC/oauth/login
Under API Access, select User Profile API.
Click Save changes.

Add Collaborators (Optional)

Under Collaborators, add the email address of each user who should help manage this APS application.

Note: Each email address must belong to an Autodesk account.
