What is replacing A360 Desktop

[Anonymous]

Is there anything replacing the desktop sync for A360 Drive?

Autodesk Desktop Connector replaced A360 Desktop (for Drive - it is retired as of 6-19), it ties into BIM 360 Team and BIM 360 Document Management. That being said, the A360 Drive service is being replaced by Autodesk Drive. 

Please let me know if that explanation helps.

Thanks Scott. I guess I'm wondering if I need to download so I can get the
Autodesk Desktop Connector up and working?

So If I understand this correctly, I need to purchase BIM 360 team or BIM
360 Doc and then use the desktop connect to get the files on my computer to
sync to the cloud now?

Yes, the very latest version of the Desktop Connector (+ the BIM 360 Docs plugin) will allow you to sync to BIM 360 Team and BIM 360 Document Management . It will display a list of your Team and Docs projects and so will allow you do upload the files to the projects.

Hello @scott.a.green , 

Thank you for the response and I'm sorry to be a broken record however, is A360 officially shut down? The reason I ask is that I was still able to create a A360 cloud space. Please confirm for me as we have a client that currently uses A360 and they need to know what there next steps are.

Thank you
