What is an Autodesk Forma administrator?

Administrators manage your company's Autodesk Forma account including its members, projects, templates, and more. This includes assigning access to products in the Autodesk Forma platform.

 

How can I find my Autodesk Forma administrator?

Here are some tips to help find your Autodesk Forma administrator:

  • Ask the team member who invited you to BuildingConnected or TradeTapp if they are an Autodesk Forma administrator.
  • Consult the individual in your company who is in charge of purchasing software. After purchasing or renewing, the purchaser or appointed person would have received an email or link to access the subscription and create an Autodesk Construction Cloud account for your company.
  • Your company may already be using a Autodesk Forma product in a different department. Check to see if your company may using any of the following products. If yes, there will be Autodesk Forma administrators already set up that can assign you a subscription or add the correct person to Autodesk Forma to manage BuildingConnected or TradeTapp subscriptions:
    • Forma Build
    • Autodesk Takeoff
    • Autodesk BIM Collaborate
    • Forma Data Management
    • Autodesk AutoSpecs
