What's new in VIKTOR (September 2025)

VIKTOR

by VIKTOR

Another month, another set of updates to make your VIKTOR experience better, faster, and easier. This September, we’re rolling out new ways to work with Autodesk and giving you more control in the App Builder. You can now select Autodesk cloud files with the new AutodeskFileField component, visualize Autodesk models directly in your app with AutodeskView, use OAuth 2.0 integrations for secure cloud connections, and configure apps so users can save their input.

Select Autodesk files in your apps 

With the AutodeskFileField, users can select files from their Autodesk cloud storage. It lets them browse and pick files directly within your app. Setting this up is quick and simple, requiring just a few lines of code! Learn more in the documentation.

Visualize Autodesk models directly in VIKTOR

With the new AutodeskView, you can load and visualize Autodesk models straight from Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), right inside your VIKTOR apps. No more downloads or external viewers, but a seamless way to explore your models in real-time. You only need a few lines of code to implement this! Read more in the documentation.

OAuth 2.0 integrations in App Builder

The App Builder now supports OAuth 2.0 integrations as well! This means you can securely connect to services like Autodesk directly from your App Builder apps, without any extra setup.  Simply open your app details in the App Builder (gear icon), head to the integrations page, and assign the integration you want to use. From here, just insert the integration name in your prompt, and the App Builder will generate the required code for you!

Combined with the AutodeskFileField and AutodeskView, you can easily build Autodesk-enabled apps in just a few clicks: from selecting files straight from your cloud storage to visualising models directly in your app.  Read more in the documentation.

Configure App Builder apps so users can save input

Until now, App Builder apps have not supported storing entities or creating revisions. With this update, you can now enable saving.

This enables the creation of apps where users can define entities and store their inputs, ensuring that their work is persisted and always readily accessible.

Community Spotlight

Working platforms are amongst the most important temporary works, ensuring the safe operation of tracked plants during construction. Following the BRE 470 practice guide, Temporary Works Designers can reliably design platforms that provide stability and safety on site. To make this process faster and more consistent, Georgios Malliotakis built an app that automates the calculation of required platform thickness according to BRE 470. The result? Safer, more reliable designs delivered in a fraction of the time. Make sure to try out Georgios’ app
