I am developing My own project to view model from file in Autodesk Docs, but I am really confuse, How should I start from? for now I use 2 legged Authentication and got and access denied.Can someone help me to summarize overview steps to finally my custom viewer can view it?
Overall steps to view forge model in forge viewer.
I'd suggest to start with one of our tutorials, for example:
Simple Viewer - this tutorial guides you through the development of an application that manages the files of its users (designs are stored in a custom OSS bucket owned by the application)
Hubs Browser - this tutorial might be better for your use case as it builds an application that can access designs of its users in other APS applications such as Autodesk Docs, Autodesk Construction Cloud, or BIM360

I am a new user of Autodesk Forge and I am stuck in the very first step. I cannot figure out what to do after I created an app on Forge's website. Can you please help me with this? I would appreciate it if there are any resources that I can use as I searched the internet and could not find anything.
I would like to do with Forge is to import my BIM from Revit to Forge, but I do not know where to start.
If you already created an app, you probably were on this website Autodesk Forge.
The third button in the navbar "Getting started" will redirect you to Learn Forge where you can find a lot of resources to get started.
Autodesk recently released their new Forge tutorials that are meant to guide developers through the whole process of creating applications on the Forge platform.
You can find the new Forge tutorial here: https://forge-tutorials.autodesk.io/
If you need more information on all the Forge APIs, you can have a look at the API documentation on the main Autodesk Forge website: https://forge.autodesk.com/developer/documentation
How can I make a dashboard for autodesk construction cloud modules like (RFIs, assets, etc) in my Autodesk Forge app using Dot Net Core?
Dashboard usually a client side thing, there are some popular JS libs which can help you to create fancy UI, what kind of Dashboard do you wan? This should not be related to Dot Net Core..
I have just discovered a new function that I have been waiting for for a very long time.
It is now possible to publish Recap Pro projects to the cloud for viewing and annotating. Demo
if I have seen it correctly , its atm only possible in BIM360 Docs, but here the Forge Viewer is used.
Now my question:
When will this function be made available to me as a developer?
BIM 360 Docs is built on top of the Forge Viewer, it should be already available for you to translate the model and display it in your own application.
Something you might want to try is to upload the RCP file to BIM 360 and then get the URN from there to pass it to your custom made viewer, so it takes care of the needed setup for translation.
Currently I'm working on a project where i need to use forge viewer and vault APIs
The system i'm developing should get files from vault and display those in the forge viewer.
I couldn't find any guide or references on how to connect both API's to achieve my goal.
Vault and Forge are two different APIs. And currently, as I know, we have not integrate Vault file system with Forge services, which means the Vault files cannot be accessed in the role of users (while some other cloud products support such as BIM 360, Fusion 360, because they are built on Forge services as well)
So, you would need to use Vault API to get the files from Vault, and use Forge web service to upload and translate the file, in order to view the model in the Forge Viewer.
I am not sure if you have played with Vault API or Forge API. These are just some materials which might be useful:

Assemblies
https://www.autodesk.com/autodesk-university/class/Using-Vault-API-and-View- and-Data-API-Together-Download-and-View-Assemblies-2015
This was delivered by our colleague in 2015 Autodesk University. At that time,
the technology of viewing model in the browser is called View and Data. The
basic workflow is similar to current Forge Viewer.
Vault APIs tutorials：
https://www.autodesk.com/developer-network/platform-technologies/vault
which contains the materials how to get started with Vault. As to the specific topics on downloading files, you can refer to the handout in the above AU class
Forge Viewer tutorials
https://forge.autodesk.com/en/docs/viewer/v6/tutorials/
And I also recommend the other step by step tutorial:

Should you have any questions in the process, please feel free to pose the questions with autodesk-forge tag.
I'm new to Autodesk Forge API. Planning to use it for converting Revit files. But when creating an app inside the Forge console, the system doesn't allow me to select relevant API's to "turn them on" for the app.

While https://developer.autodesk.com/en/docs/oauth/v2/tutorials/create-app/ guide lists all possible API's the service provides.
What could be the issue?
I believe you did not start your trial, please apply for FREE 90-DAY TRIAL, and you will see all the available APIs in the list.
