Cloud storage with Autodesk Drive

00:01

Now let's look at the author's drive.

00:04

What the disk drive is a cloud storage solution

00:07

that allows individuals and small teams to organize,

00:10

preview and share any type of design or model data.

00:14

It is a smart storage solution that supports 60

00:17

plus types of autodesk and third party files for viewing

00:21

and for select five times

00:24

you can make edits to your designs

00:27

in the latter case dr with managed references automatically.

00:31

Also, unlike generic cloud storage drive,

00:35

let your collaborators on cad come and beam projects.

00:39

View models and drawings right in their browser,

00:42

no plug ins or downloads needed.

00:45

Finally,

00:46

you can view an organized file stored

00:48

in drive from the desktop and desktop applications

00:53

and only download them when you need them preserving your local storage.

00:58

The packing co feature is an example of how automatic drive is used by vote

01:05

packing. Go collects a file

01:07

and all its reference files into a single package and send it to

01:11

a folder outside the world or to a male recipient.

01:15

All files that are referenced by a select fire are including the

01:18

package unless otherwise specified in the pack and go dialog box.

01:22

And you can also decide to include all the associated

01:25

files or both the associated files and attach files.

01:29

So how does this work?

01:31

The first thing is that you need to install the desktop connector as it

01:35

enables you to access the altars drive or the Fusion 3 60 drive.

01:40

Then

01:41

the packing gold package can be sent to alter

01:43

this drive or the fusion 360 cloud drive.

01:48

Finally,

01:48

the transmitter report can be included one sending packages.

01:53

The transmitter report details the final name, revision, state,

01:57

vote for the location and date.

01:59

The version was created for each fire.

02:02

You can open and edit a file directly

02:04

from your drive using the desktop connector application.

02:08

If you're editing files in directory that's connected to drive,

02:12

your changes will be automatically sync to drive.

02:15

If you have desktop connector,

02:17

you'll also have the option to edit on that. Stop

02:21

this lets you open files for editing directly from the Dr web interface.

02:26

You don't have to manually download the file located with your app of choice,

02:30

then manually re upload afterwards.

02:33

It's all handled for you

02:35

importantly.

02:37

Everything they find on the desktop

02:38

does not check out or lock the file.

02:41

If you have shared this content with other people,

02:44

they aren't prevented from making concurrent edits

02:47

whenever the file is saved locally for any user,

02:50

a new version is uploaded to drive,

02:53

whichever update his latest is the one that wins.

02:56

You need to reconcile any differences manually
