description: >
  Autodesk BIM 360 APIs are accessed through Autodesk Platform Services (APS),
  which introduced a new business model effective December 8, 2025. The model
  provides Free and Paid tiers. BIM 360-specific APIs (Account Admin, Issues,
  Assets, Cost Management, Model Coordination, RFIs, Checklists, Data Connector,
  Locations, Relationships, Document Management) are generally available under
  the non-rated category and remain free with no usage restrictions. Rated APIs
  such as Model Derivative and Automation API have monthly caps under the free
  tier and require paid tokens for additional usage.
