Make an easy option to share a Fusion360 file for support/forums

Hi,

 

often when asking the forums for help with a bug or a general question it would be helpful to attach the file to the post. Unfortunately Fusion360 doesn't use it's cloud advantages here. It would be great to be able to just copy a link from within fusion that makes the current version of the file available for other users to open.

 

Suggested workflow:

 

- "Copy support link" in Burger Menu inside Fusion

- The link gets copied to your clipboard (maybe an additional message showing the link in a text field for clipboard problems maybe useful)

- You can now insert the link into forum posts or send by email.

- Other users can click this link and get a instance of the file in their default project or a project they select.

 

Done.

 

There's no sense in export, download, upload to forums, user download again, upload again to Fusion....

so true!

Great idea.

 

Not essential but this could even be integrated into the app (given how web based the dashboard is).

This is a great idea! We should be making it as easy as possible to get problems up to the forums for help. I could see this being similar to uploading to the gallery where you can type out your post and provide the necessary links all without leaving the Fusion 360 interface. I'll push on this one to try and get it moving, what a great way to build the community and improve the experience with the product.

This is a great idea not just for support bot for easily sharing designs with others too. Stay tuned for a couple of enhancements in the next update that will address this request.

well regarded normal publich sharing we already had an idea discussed in the past with maybe some additional details. Just wanted to crosslink this here though most of you seem to have already seen it already http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/Fusion-360-IdeaStation-Request-a/Simple-Public-Viewer/idi-p/4938032
