Hello

Am trying to use Power Automate to control AutoCAD by recording clicks and commands. Unfortunately, the flow errors on the typing of commands. It can not connect to the text box to type the commands.
Is there a solution for this?

PS: Power Automate is new for me, am quite familiar with AutoCAD and scripting of AutoCAD commands.

Hi there,
Given autocad is a command based program, I would check out acad's native sciprting and lisp language, it's purpose built for it. Don't type commands in the output window, write them into a script file (*.scr) and run it (type same command in acad. when you get good at that try lisp code. And for elements that ned to interact with teh GUI there is the action recorder. Let me know if you need any examples.

Thanks PD! Am quite familiar with scripts in AutoCAD, but this is actually in an non-AutoDESK add-in that is not accessible through commands on the command line.
