Tags lose association from linked host

Tags lose association from linked host

Anonymous

Hi there,

 

I'm having issues with tags losing association to certain linked elements over night.  It doesn't seem random because it's the same element that gets orphaned, after reconciling hosting.  I've reloaded the link before SwC, there were no changes made to the linked element, and there's only one user in that linked model at all times.  This is a BIM360 project, and we have an automated publishing to BIM360 Docs and Glue that runs at night.  Any idea what might be causing this issue?  Thanks.

What kind of elements, tags? Tagging linked elements is volatile in practice because of the separation and potential for changes the tag can't accommodate. Is this limited to one linked file relationship? Is the linked file hosted on BIM 360 or access through Autodesk Desktop Connector or other?

Specifically railing tags in my situation, but I've had this happen on sprinkler and lighting fixtures as well.  It is happening with more than one linked model, but always the same element in the same linked model.  The host file and linked file are both on BIM360.  Thanks for your help.
