I'm trying to import a Sketchup 2018 model into my Fusion360 workspace. I have uploaded into the work area....let it sit 8 hours......I get the 'upload complete' status, but when I double-click on it in my project library in F360 it takes me back to "myhub.autodesk.com" and just shows me a folder image with the file. Any attempt to open it in F360 does not work. In myhub.autodesk.com I can see the model, spin it around, etc....so F360 knows its a model.
The documentation that describes how to import Sketchup files doesn't state which versions of Sketchup are supported? Does anyone know which versions do work? I could not find this info anywhere. Could this be my issue?
Thanks.

How does that answer the question? The given doc link shows that *.skp can be used (apparently, though I have not made it work) But as the OP was asking, what are the supported versions of Sketchup? This link does not give any info on that...
Has anybody actually managed to import a Sketchup file? This feature doesn't seem to work. I can upload it to the hub and even orbit the 3D preview, but can't open it in Fusion.

It seems that the free version no longer allows you to import .skp files into fusion.
I am not sure if the trial version (lasts one month? Features enabled?) would allow an import.
The student version does allow this capability.
You would think the free version would be a natural fit for importing Sketchup files, since many hobbyists/free users will be coming from Sketchup. How many pro industrial designers need to import sketchup files?
... 100% agree. It might even entice a sketchup user to be a convert, as there would be less fear of losing a large historical portfolio in another technology. This was suggested to them in my phone calls to the help center. But am sure they would rather send out a survey - 😛 Merry Christmas
Your sketchup models are just going to be mesh files in fusion anyway. no different than if you imported .stl models. (which are terrible to work with in fusion). You would end up needing to remake everything regardless.
