Hi, 

 

Please try to find the right place for cloud libraries folder as following: Click your Fusion ID on the top right corner of Fusion and then click My Profile. When you enter A360 page, click Data --> A360 DRIVE. The CAMPosts, CAMTools and CAMTemplates folders should be there.

 

But if you are the first time to use the CAM related tool libraries after June 20th release, there maybe no these folders there. You can create them by yourself in A360 and then upload your files. This is also mentioned in the Readme file of June release.

First, please make sure you created a new folder under the Cloud folder in the Tool Library dialog and put all the tools into this cloud sub folder. Then the upload to Cloud only happens after you close the Tool Library. Please wait for a moment for the sync workflow to finish and then reopen the Tool Library dialog to have a look. 

 

Thanks,

Debbie

This is how i did it!

1. export a local library

2 import it as a subfolder under cloud

3. close the manager and wait maybe 10 min.

4 open a360, data, a360drive, camtool, 

STILL EMPTY, WHY

 

And how do i choose a postprocessor that I've stored in the cloud? When i want to PP?

The exact name for cloud tools folder in A360 should be CAMTools, can you please help confirm this? Sometimes the sync workflow is not so smooth due to A360 service. Maybe this is the reason. I will also keep an eye on this.

 

For Cloud Post Process, after invoking Post Process dialog, please click the Setup button on the right of the Configuration Folder text box and then select Use Cloud Posts. This is for Windows version. If on Mac OS, please choose the My Cloud Posts option in the Source drop-down list.

Hey Johan,

 

Have you tried exporting the tool library, then placing it in the folder?  We have a hot fix coming out Friday, so hope this gets ironed out.  I'm thinking it's what Debbie mentioned, that there could be a delay with the a360 sync.  More to come...
