  • Configuring Multi-Team Collaboration on Civil 3D Cloud Projects

    Today, we’ll take our first look at the team space concept within Autodesk Construction Cloud. Team spaces create an environment where multiple teams can have their own collaborative space inside a Civil 3D project. Using a team space, each team can work independently on their content and share it with other teams when ready. Shared…

  • Sharing Civil 3D Cloud Project Files with Internal and External Stakeholders

    Autodesk Construction Cloud provides several options for exchanging content with internal and external stakeholders. In our recent 30 min. Workout, we explored some formal and informal methods of file sharing. Using the informal methods shown, project managers can easily share content with stakeholders (regardless of file sizes) using a single platform. They also retain a pristine copy…

Using the new Bridge feature, however, project files can easily be shared (and updated) between projects, even if those projects reside within different accounts! A bridge represents data synchronization from a host project to a receiving project.…
