Importing Tool library with education online version

I am a high school teacher.  I have created a tool library that I exported (.tools file) and sent via email to my students.  When they download it and go to import in Fusion, they can not access their downloads folder or Google drive.  Can someone help with how they can get this tool library to their online version of Fusion 360 (they are using Chromebooks).

Great question @JohnDoornenbal .  Fusion for students runs on a virtual machine without access to the local filesystem.
See https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/fusion-360/learn-explore/caas/simplecontent/content/browser-a... 
You can upload to their hub using fusion team.  Tool libraries go in Assets/CAMTools.  

If you use Fusion data panel, you can go to Assets CAM Tools and click the world image to open browser to the tools folder.

Thank you for the info Matt.  I am still working on this.  I have uploaded our local tool file into my ASSETS - CAM TOOLS (I am working off my computer, students are on Chromebooks).  Now do I click on PEOPLE and share it with them or invite them?

(We are LOVING Fusion with our new CNC machine. )

Hi -

 

When you have an Assets project, it is automatically shared and available to all members of the same team.

I had my students each create their own team and I did as well.  So, do I just add people to my team that I want to use the tool library.  Thanks so much.
