Authentication

How Barvinca connects to your Autodesk account and customer ACC/BIM 360 account.

3-Legged OAuth (User Authentication)

When you sign in with your Autodesk account, Barvinca receives a token that acts on your behalf. This establishes your session and account context.

The current Marketplace launch uses the Autodesk sign-in flow plus Barvinca's authorized app-level access for Bulk User Manager.

Your session expires after 30 minutes of inactivity. You'll be redirected to sign in again if it expires.

2-Legged OAuth (App Authentication)

Bulk User Manager needs account-level access that goes beyond your personal session. Listing users and running admin operations use Barvinca's APS app after your Account Admin authorizes its Client ID as a Custom Integration.

For the practical first-run checklist, use the Setup Guide.

To set this up:

Open Profile and copy the Barvinca APS Client ID: u1c753JAoD7qgeoHR158KcQIHhNMGpr5GaNYpBgw8iHBJdwA
In ACC/BIM 360 Account Admin, add a Custom Integration and paste that Client ID
Grant Account Administration permission for Bulk User Manager
Return to Profile and run the test when available

Do not create a customer APS app or provide a Client Secret for normal Marketplace setup. Barvinca keeps its app secret server-side.

Required Scopes

Bulk User Manager — Account Administration permission through the ACC/BIM 360 Custom Integration.

Troubleshooting

403 Forbidden — Barvinca's Client ID is not authorized in the target ACC/BIM 360 account, Account Administration permission is missing, or the signed-in user is not allowed to access that account.
401 Unauthorized — Your session expired. Sign in again.
Credentials validation failed — This only applies to an advanced support-only override. Normal Marketplace users should contact support instead of entering APS secrets.
No data appears — Make sure Barvinca's Client ID has been added to your ACC/BIM 360 account as a Custom Integration.
