Overview:

Whether your projects sit in Autodesk Forma, Autodesk Construction Cloud, or legacy BIM 360, CDE Sync keeps that data aligned with whatever other platforms your contractors, consultants or client are using. No more exporting from Docs and manually re-uploading somewhere else.

What CDE Sync does for Autodesk Forma (ACC) users:

  • Synchronises models, documents and custom attributes in both directions between Forma/ACC and every other connected CDE

  • Handles BIM 360 and legacy ACC projects alongside newer Forma environments

  • Maps custom attributes against your target platform's schema automatically

  • Queues and retries automatically within Autodesk's API limits, so large document sets don't need manual tuning

How it connects:

CDE Sync installs directly from the Autodesk App Store and authenticates through your organisation's existing single sign-on. There's no custom API registration and nothing for your IT team to build.

Also syncs with:

Bentley ProjectWise, Microsoft SharePoint, Procore, Oracle Aconex, 12d Synergy, Asite, InEight, Trimble, and Azure Blob.

Security:

Built on Microsoft Azure. SOC 2 Type II certified. Zero file persistence, your data is streamed, never stored.
