Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Barvinca, authentication, and operations.

What is Barvinca?

Barvinca is a hosted browser app for Autodesk Construction Cloud and BIM 360 administration. The current Marketplace launch focuses on Bulk User Manager.

Which tool is available right now?

Bulk User Manager is the only tool available in the current Autodesk Marketplace launch. Other internal or planned tools are not included in launch subscriptions.

What is included in the welcome balance?

New users receive 50 CREDS once for Bulk User Manager write execution. Discovery, dry-run previews, operation history, setup checks, and sync cost 0 CREDS.

What do I need before using Bulk User Manager?

You need Autodesk sign-in and an ACC/BIM 360 Account Admin to add the Barvinca APS Client ID as a Custom Integration with Account Administration permission. You do not create an APS app or provide a Client Secret for normal Marketplace setup.

What happens after the welcome CREDS are used?

Continued write execution uses paid monthly CREDS plans, handled through support while automated checkout is not live.

How are APS credentials handled?

Barvinca keeps its APS app secret server-side. Marketplace users copy only the public Barvinca Client ID into Autodesk Custom Integrations; they do not store or share an APS Client Secret with Barvinca.

Can multiple team members use the same account?

Each team member signs in with their own Autodesk account. Your subscription is tied to your APS account ID, so everyone in your organization shares the same tier and tool access.

What happens if an operation fails midway?

Bulk operations use server-side checkpoints. If a failure occurs, the operation pauses and can be resumed from where it left off. No work is lost. Check the operation history for details.

Which Autodesk products are supported?

Barvinca works with Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) and BIM 360. Both platforms use the same underlying APIs with minor differences in role naming and permission models.

How do I export data?

Bulk User Manager includes CSV-oriented workflows for reviewing users and operation results.

Is there an API I can call programmatically?

The Marketplace launch is a browser app. Public programmatic API access is not part of the launch offer.
