v27.0.6

14-08-2026

Features

• New cmdlet: Register-InventorEvent to register actions that are executed for a wide range of Inventor events, e.g. before saving documents.

Fixed

• Issue where Add-Type could fail to compile C# code in customization scripts for Vault 2026 and 2027 when VDS is not installed (Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Vault Client ...\Explorer\ref')

• Assembly loading conflicts when importing cross-platform modules such as Microsoft Graph and Azure in Vault 2026 and 2027 scripts (Import-Module: Could not load file or assembly 'Azure.Core,... or similar)

General

• Third-party dependencies of our Vault webservice extension are now installed in dedicated subfolders instead of directly in the Vault extensions directory.
  This prevents Vault from mistakenly resolving them for Vault add-ins from other software vendors.
  
  

• Standard scripts for powerJobs Client no longer leave unclear PowerShell errors behind when no settings for submitting jobs have been configured, and show again a clear permission warning when Vault options cannot be read.

FileSaveAsDialog event and Vault Data Standard

The FileSaveAsDialog event is not recommended to be used in parallel with Vault Data Standard.
Although both the event and the VDS Save As dialog are executed while saving, it cannot be guaranteed whether the event runs before or after the VDS code, which may lead to unintended results.

v27.0.5

16-06-2026

Fixed
