Hello.
Thank you reply. Before create this post I was checking in the forum, I did not find anything any explain about installing Dynamo for AutoCAD vanilla. Can you explain me how to install Dynamo for AutoCAD or copy the reference in this post please
For vanilla download the sandbox version from dynamobuilds.com, select the latest zip and run DynamoSandbox.exe, no installation needed. After this you can follow the points in the linked forum.
someone might share a simple code to draw 2 lines since dynamo to autocad?

I tested everything, nothing work.
Have you installed Civil 3D?
yes CIVIL works good with Dynamo, but AutoCAD Vanilla and their verticals can not do nothing with Dynamo.
If you launch civil you have the full AutoCAD vanilla as well.
If you want Dynamo for AutoCAD so that users who don’t have access to Civil 3D can utilize the tool, then you will have to make some requests of the AutoCAD product team via their roadmap or the AutoCAD forum.
I found a video about a Russian developer created an app to use AutoCAD with Dynamo, how was this possible? This app is very old and not do anything with new versions.
It uses the very old AutoCAD COM api to interface with AutoCAD. It is not as quick or stable as a formal build would be as a result, and has a lot of limitations as well.
Every project of scope I have had which starts with that has moved another direction due to the combination of limitations and stability.
