Fusion 360 extensions are not add-ins or add-ons. Fusion 360 extensions allow you to unlock advanced manufacturing capabilities and enhanced workflows tailored to your business needs.

A 7-day, free trial is available for certain extensions. During the trial period, you have access to all the capabilities of the chosen extension.

If you are new to Fusion 360, contact us to initiate a free trial in order to access extension trials.

Once you have access to Fusion 360, follow these instructions to get a 7-day trial of a Fusion 360 extension:

• Click the Extensions icon in the top-right corner of the Application Bar in Fusion 360
• Select the extension you would like to trial from the list of Available Extensions
• From the Access Options dropdown in the top-right corner, select Start 7-day free trial and click Purchase, which will begin your trial for free

Fusion 360 extensions come with flexible payment terms, including monthly and annual subscriptions, as well as cloud credit options. A Fusion 360 subscription is required in order to access all Fusion 360 extensions.
