JarCastingForge Java SDK
Forge API: 
Overview
This Java SDK enables you to easily integrate the Forge REST APIs into your application, including OAuth, Data Management, Model Derivative, and Design Automation.
Requirements
- Java version 7 and above.
- A registered app on the Forge Developer portal.
- Apache Maven.
Install the Library
To install the API client library to your local Maven repository, simply execute:
mvn install

}
Tutorial
Follow this tutorial to see a step-by-step process and examples of how to use the Forge APIs.
Authentication
This SDK comes with an OAuth 2.0 client that allows you to retrieve 2-legged and 3-legged tokens. It also enables you to refresh 3-legged tokens. This tutorial uses both 2-legged and 3-legged tokens for calling different Data Management endpoints.
2-Legged Token
This type of token is given directly to the application. To get a 2-legged token run the following code:
String CLIENT_ID = "" , CLIENT_SECRET = "";
List<String> scopes = new ArrayList<String>();
scopes.add("data:read");
scopes.add("data:write");
// Initialize the 2-legged OAuth 2.0 client, and optionally set specific scopes.
// If you omit scopes, the generated token will have all scope permissions.
// Set autoRefresh to `true` to automatically refresh the access token when it expires.
OAuth2TwoLegged oauth2TwoLegged = new OAuth2TwoLegged(CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET, scopes, true);
Credentials twoLeggedCredentials = oauth2TwoLegged.authenticate();
3-Legged Token
Generate an Authentication URL
To ask for permissions from a user to retrieve an access token, you redirect the user to a consent page. Run this code to create a consent page URL:
String CLIENT_ID = "" , CLIENT_SECRET = "", REDIRECT_URL = "";
// Generate a url that asks permissions for specific scopes.
List<String> scopes = new ArrayList<String>();
scopes.add("data:read");
scopes.add("data:write");
// Initialize the 3-legged OAuth 2.0 client, and optionally set specific scopes.
// If you omit scopes, the generated token will have all scope permissions.
// Set autoRefresh to `true` to automatically refresh the access token when it expires.
// Note that the REDIRECT_URL must match the callback URL you provided when you created the app.
OAuth2ThreeLegged oauth2ThreeLegged = new OAuth2ThreeLegged(CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET, REDIRECT_URL, scopes, true);
// Generate a URL page that asks for permissions for the specified scopes.
String oauthUrl = oauth2ThreeLegged.getAuthenticationUrl();
//Redirect the user to authUrl (the user consent page).
Retrieve an Authorization Code
Once a user receives permissions on the consent page, Forge will redirect the page to the redirect URL you provided when you created the app. An authorization code is returned in the query string.
GET /callback?code={authorizationCode}
Retrieve an Access Token
Request an access token using the authorization code you received, as shown below:
// The `threeLeggedCredentials` object contains an `access_token` and an optional `refresh_token` that you can use to call the endpoints.
ThreeLeggedCredentials threeLeggedCredentials = oauth2ThreeLegged.getAccessToken(authorizationCode);
Note that access tokens expire after a short period of time. The expiresAt field in the threeLeggedCredentials object gives the validity of an access token in seconds. To refresh your access token, call the oauth2ThreeLegged.refreshAccessToken(threeLeggedCredentials.getRefreshToken()); method.
Example API Calls
Use the threeLeggedCredentials object to call the Forge APIs.
import com.autodesk.client.ApiException;
import com.autodesk.client.ApiResponse;
import com.autodesk.client.api.BucketsApi;
import com.autodesk.client.api.HubsApi;
import com.autodesk.client.auth.*;
import com.autodesk.client.model.*;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class ForgeApiExample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
List<String> scopes = new ArrayList<String>();
scopes.add("data:read");
scopes.add("data:write");
scopes.add("bucket:create");
scopes.add("bucket:read");
// Initialize the oauth2TwoLegged object using the client key and client secret you received when creating the app on the Forge Developer portal:
OAuth2TwoLegged oauth2TwoLegged = new OAuth2TwoLegged("<CLIENT_ID>", "<CLIENT_SECRET>", scopes, true);
Credentials twoLeggedCredentials = oauth2TwoLegged.authenticate();
// Initialize the relevant clients; in this example, the Hubs and Buckets clients (part of the Data Management API).
BucketsApi bucketsApi = new BucketsApi();
HubsApi hubsApi = new HubsApi();
// Create a new bucket
// Use the oauth2TwoLegged and twoLeggedCredentials objects that you retrieved previously.
PostBucketsPayload payload = new PostBucketsPayload();
payload.setBucketKey("test_bucket_key");
payload.setPolicyKey(PostBucketsPayload.PolicyKeyEnum.PERSISTENT);
ApiResponse<Bucket> createBucketResponse = bucketsApi.createBucket(payload, "", oauth2TwoLegged, twoLeggedCredentials);
System.out.println(createBucketResponse.getData().getBucketKey());
// Get the buckets owned by an application.
// Use the oauth2TwoLegged and twoLeggedCredentials objects that you retrieved previously.
ApiResponse<Buckets> getBucketsResponse = bucketsApi.getBuckets(null, null, null, oauth2TwoLegged, twoLeggedCredentials);
for(BucketsItems bucket: getBucketsResponse.getData().getItems()) {
System.out.println(bucket.getBucketKey());
}
// Get the hubs that are accessible for a member.
// Use the oauth2ThreeLegged and threeLeggedCredentials objects that you retrieved previously.
ApiResponse<Hubs> getHubsResponse = hubsApi.getHubs(null, null, oauth2ThreeLegged, threeLeggedCredentials);
for(Hub hub: getHubsResponse.getData().getData()) {
System.out.println(hub.getId());
}
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Exception when calling Forge APIs");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
