Step-by-step guide for moving your license to a new user · about 10 minutes per license
To move your license to a new user you need a new Outlook email and a new Autodesk account on that email.
If you have several BIM / FORMA licenses, repeat the process for each license separately, with a different Outlook address for each one.
📧1. New Outlook email
🔐2. Old email for recovery
🏗️3. Autodesk account
💬4. Send it to us
Before you start, have ready:
The old user's email (the email you used to sign in to Autodesk until now). It becomes the recovery email.
Pen and paper: write down every new address and password you choose.
Choose a name for the new address
Type a name (for example your office name + a number) and pick @outlook.com next to it. Click Next.
Taken? Add a number or your office name. Write down the address you chose.
3
Password, name, country and date of birth
Choose a strong password (at least 8 characters, letters and numbers) and write it down. Then: first and last name, country Israel and date of birth. Click Next on every screen.
4
"I'm not a robot" check
Microsoft will ask you to solve a short puzzle or to press and hold a button. Do it yourself: it confirms that a person is opening the account.
After that your new mailbox opens.
5
Recovery email = the old user's email
If during sign-up you are asked for a recovery email (alternate email / security info), enter the old user's email.
Not asked? Add it after the account is created:
Account security info → Sign in with the new email → Add a new way to sign in or verify → Email a code → type the old email → enter the code that arrives there.
Is the old email a mailbox we manage for you? Send us a WhatsApp message when you request the code and we will pass it to you right away.
Type the new email and click Next
In the Email field enter your new Outlook address. Click Next.
Don't use the Continue with… buttons: email and password only.
8
Name, password and terms
Fill in your first and last name, choose a password for Autodesk (write it down), tick the terms checkbox and click the create account button.
9
Verification code from Autodesk
Autodesk sends a code to your new Outlook mailbox. Open Outlook, copy the code and enter it (the code is valid for about 10 minutes).
Didn't arrive? Check the Junk folder, wait a few minutes or request a new code.
Part C Send it to us
✅ Done? Send us the new email address on WhatsApp (for each license, its own address).
We will move the license to it and let you know when you can sign in.
Keep the passwords yourself: don't send them unless we ask.
Several licenses? Repeat Parts A–B for each one, with a different Outlook address for each license.
Stuck halfway? Take a screenshot and send it to us on WhatsApp. We will help you continue.
