The duplicate search function is fantastic and it is fine if you have Inventor and can run it. Since the information is there and indexed, how hard would it be to add this on a tab along with where used/uses information on the Preview Pane? Or at least make it available so we can access it from the API.   By the nature of our bespoke machine design process we end up with a lot of physically duplicate parts. This is fine for our local in house manufacturing because our systems are automated to take care of this and it is more economic to not have to worry if a part will change when the parameter file or iLogic changes it, especially if the machine is in the early stages of development. Our European branch however outsources their manufacturing and we could save some costs by re-issuing a job with reference to the previous identical part. They will naturally want to automate this, but one step at a time.   We do have a standardization procedure and a different numbering scheme to easily identify them. Another feature that would benefit us would be adding the duplicate search to copy design. We could search on what we have set to copy in the assembly before we copy and be able to swap out parts rather than to copy them.  Show More

The current LowPriority mode, defined in web.config on ADMS servers, needs more flexibility. (Autodesk docu)   At the moment it is only possible to define a start and end time for every day. It would be nice to define times for each day separately. For example on the weekend it needs no low priority, servers can run with full power.   In our case we have only one DB, subribers are AVFS servers and its a global system, so we have only a slot for 3 hours daily to run not with low priority and on the weekend sometimes we do changes which should be done then with full power.   Thank you Show More

The Query Builder is a useful tool to search for files. It would be great if the configuration of the fields to search can also be part of the distributed searches/settings.   Right now what seems to work is to copy the "Displayed Properties" in the  "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Autodesk Vault Professional 2024\Servers\<servername>\Vaults\<vaultname>\History\QuickFindHistory-IExplorerObject.xml" file, but it is a manual process.   Show More

It should be possible to allow or disallow disallowed Windows characters in Properties. This is particularly interesting if you want to use custom functions to pull files with the value of a certain property from the Vault. This can lead to problems if the property in question contains a value with e.g. "/"         Show More

Use AssemblyLoadContext Internally Within Vault Add-Ins  With Vault 2026+ using .NET 8 (& the separated .NET Core version of 2025), there is no separate execution context for the add-in to run. So, if there is a NuGet package/assembly version conflict with the add-in and Vault or another add-in, it will cause an error. Below are some resources for how to do this manually within each add-in.   Could this be built into the standard 'IWebServiceExtension', 'IExplorerExtension', & 'IJobHandler' to prevent the need to do this manually?   Blog article on Vault add-in implementing AssemblyLoadContext: https://tylerwarner.dev/assemblyloadcontext-for-vault-addins   Sample Vault add-in implementing AssemblyLoadContext: https://github.com/tylerwarner33/autodesk-vault-assembly-load-context   Blog article on Vault add-in implementing AssemblyLoadContext via a NuGet that updates the IL code at runtime: https://tylerwarner.dev/assemblyloadcontext-for-autodesk-addins-with-isolatorfody   Sample Vault add-in implementing AssemblyLoadContext via a NuGet that updates the IL code at runtime: https://github.com/tylerwarner33/autodesk-vault-assembly-load-context-fody   Revit implementation discussion about internal implementation: https://feedback.autodesk.com/project/forum/thread.html?cap=cb0fd5af18bb49b791dfa3f5efc47a72&forid=%...   Accepted Inventor idea for the same internal implementation: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-ideas/use-assemblyloadcontext-internally-within-inventor-add-ins/idc-p/14004748#M52374 Show More

We have two different work flows, one for standard parts that are highly controlled and one for custom parts that are usually only used once for a job then not changed again but reused of future projects.  The problem we are having is that we do not want the people who are working on custom parts to have access to any standard parts that are currently in work in progress (WIP).   Sometimes parts that are WIP are actually in some larger assemblies and if a user does a "get" of that larger assembly and its children, they will get the WIP version of those parts.  I can deny downloading for them on WIP parts but the problem with that is that vault does not know to go back the most recent version that that user does have permission to download.  What vault does is looks in the user's working folder and deletes that file (if it exists in their working folder) and tries to download the most recent version but the permissions denies the download, so then there is a missing part from the upper level assembly.    There also is not a way to download a previous version manually because the most recent revision is work in progress.   I could also prevent them from seeing WIP parts but Vault hides all revisions not just the work in progress revision.      There needs to be a way for users to be able to download the most recent "released" version of files, not just the most recent.   Show More

Hello,   Sometimes files remain “checked out” by the job processor user when standard Autodesk jobs fail with an error message. This leads to a blocking situation for end users who do not have permission to undo the “check out” or remove the “reservation” for the file in question. End users cannot continue their daily work. Examples of standard Autodesk tasks where this problem occurs: autodesk.vault.syncproperties (Sync properties failed for the following files: *.dwg: Sync properties not allowed on non-tip versions) autodesk.vauklt.updaterevisionblock.*  ... It would be better to "rollback" the the check-out of the file in question in case of an error. Or at least have the choice between the 2 workflows. Show More

Users want a consistent presentation of information across Vault environments. Example: On the Vault Client, the information about "Has Model State" is displayed as an icon. = Good! On the Web Client, the information about "Has Model State" is displayed as the text "True / False." In addition, the column header in the web client is filled with the text "Has model state"; in the Vault Client, only an icon is displayed, which is completely sufficient from the user's point of view. Why are there these differences at UI and no standardization?        Show More

The the previous iteration of the Vault thin client, the administrator could set the default columns that were visible. This doesn't seem like an option in the new thin client.

The number of lines in the criteria list is only 3, I think it should be growing as you add more criteria's for easier overview. Or at least there should be an resizing possibility.     Interestingly, it seems like this was NOT the case some years ago, judging by this old screenshot  I found: (screenshot source: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/vault-forum/saved-search/m-p/5495501/highlight/true#M44735 )   And while you're at it you could also fix that magnifying glass icon that looks horrible in dark-mode. 😄     Show More
