Which are the API's in Forge for us to use to convert this to a DWG or DXF file.

Dear Cyrille,

We were checking the API Docs in https://forge.autodesk.com/en/docs/design-automation/v3/developers_guide/overview/ but not able to get the Actual API's to use for this.

We are primarily looking at creating new DWG files using the API's -

Any references/suggestions in this regard is highly appreciated.

You are indeed looking at one of the right endpoints already :)

With our Design Automation service one will need to bring your own .NET AutoCAD plugin and upload it to our service as an AppPackage so it can be called as Activity in a Workitem request.

See the tutorial here and here to walk you through the whole process.

And refer to samples below to create your own AutoCAD plugin to draw from inputs: - https://github.com/Giedrius-Kristinaitis/C-Sharp_AutoCAD_Plugin - https://github.com/Autodesk-Forge/design.automation-.net-custom.activity.sample - https://github.com/Autodesk-Forge?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=autocad&type=&language=
