Using BIM 360 Team storage

Anonymous — Wed, 05 Oct 2016 14:53:24 GMT

I am not an IW360 user, but have been asked the following question, which I would like to get some feedback on.

Is it possible to use BIM360 Team storage for IW360 projects?? If so how do you achieve this is the functionality available (yet).

I have noticed that when you start a new project you can select A360 for storage, but does this use the user A360 drive storage or some special IW360 cload storage. The user I am supporting is getting a meesage they are out of storage?? Would this be cloud storage, as their local HD has 250GB free space.

Hopefully I can get some clarification on the above as their seems to be no info regarding this on AKN (All seems to be a bit of the 'black arts')

Many thnaks

@Anonymous, these are good questions! I'll try and answer them:

InfraWorks 360 indeed uses A360 storage but you will not see these stored models anywhere on the typical A360 Drive. These are only availabe through the applications Home Screen.
For every Autodesk Subscription license in your firm you get 25GB of A360 storage which combined provides your storage space also for InfraWorks 360 cloud models.
You can check your availabe InfraWorks 360 storage from within the application from the Home Screen and choose Manage online models and scenarios:

My guess is that your users could be indeed encountering an out-of-storage warning which depends on your company's total amount of subscription licenses. Can you first check your Remaining online space?

Let me know your findings.
