Add cloud assets to Vault

00:09

In this section, we're going to show how you can take a cloud-based asset and save it to your "Vault" for use internally.

00:17

We're going to switch over and we're going to start with "AutoCAD Architecture."

00:23

Now, I've already searched for a "Dumpster" file to use and I'm going to right click on this cloud-based asset and download it.

00:39

Once the file is finished downloading, you can right click and choose "Explore."

00:46

This will take me to the local data location.

00:51

Highlighting the address bar will allow me to copy it and paste it into our next step.

01:01

Our next step being Inventor.

01:05

If I switch over to "Inventor Professional".

01:15

I can choose "Create Asset," and I'm going to go with the "Import Model option."

01:23

In the "File Name" location, I can paste the location of that asset.

01:31

We're going to go with the Imperial one and choose the "Dumpster" file.

01:39

Going to hit "Open" and choose "Yes".

01:46

Once the file is loaded successfully, it's going to warn me that my "Vault" is not open.

01:55

We're going to go ahead and say "Yes" to this to allow us to log into "Vault." And ultimately, we're going to publish this asset.

02:06

Now, with us logged into "Vault," "Vault" will be an option under "Publication."

02:11

We hit "Publish Asset". It's going to ask if we want to save it. We'll say "Yes".

02:18

And from there, we're going to choose "Vault" and we're going to publish it to the "Factory Assets" location.

02:26

You can give it a name as we have previously when publishing assets.

02:33

I'm going to put cloud in there, to specify that it was downloaded from the "Cloud Asset Library."

02:41

Once everything is correct here, we'll go ahead and hit "OK."

02:54

Once the publish finishes, we'll switch back over to "Vault."

02:59

I'm launching my "Vault," log back in.

03:13

And once I'm in, I'm going to go up to "Search", for the asset that we just added.

03:24

And there it is, that's how you add a "Cloud Asset" to your "Vault."
