Just tried this on my account (around 12 folders and 45 designs); it worked pretty well and is definitely useful.
It did crash on several different projects. The first was one where I'd imported a bunch of very detailed model parts for a Raspberry Pi. I just skipped over that project in subsequent runs. (Probably was from this link: https://gallery.autodesk.com/fusion360/projects/124986/raspb... )
However, it still crashed on some other runs with much simpler models. (It was a Fusion360 crash, with 0 bytes in the timestamp.txt log file. In each case, it seemed like it exported an entire design but crashed while loading and before exporting any file types of the next one.)
I tried to find a reproducible case, but didn't get to an entirely reproducible case. Along the path, I did find a (stops script, but doesn't crash F360) error "ascii codec can't encode character '\u2019' in position 20: ordinal not in range (128)"
I presume that was on a project named "Name's phone" (where the apostrophe is a right-single-quotation-mark), however that project does appear to have successfully exported on a prior run before I tried to find a repro case for it. That exported into a directory named with a right-single-quotation-mark while the relevant files in that directory had the mark changed to ascii 0x27 (single-quote).
It also only exports visible bodies. I will sometimes have a project with multiple bodies and if the visibility is set to 0, they seem to not be exported by this process. If they're all set to 1, they're exported as a single output stl/step. Not a deal-breaker, but is something to be aware of. Still awesome/thanks!
This is awesome. For context: Fusion 360 personal license is being locked down in October, and will restrict many useful functions, including exporting projects as STEP file (industry standard file format).
