This will allow users to create local copies to work from in the traditional work sharing environment. Note that once detached, the file will no longer synch with the model stored in BIM 360 Team. Ideate’s recommendation is to use Revit to open and detach the cache file, then process the file as a new Central model on your local network.
Once the cache file is located, determine amongst your team members the copy that should be used. Once the folder has been located, look for the Revit (.rvt) model with the naming convention described and depicted above. For Revit 2017: %localappdata%\Autodesk\Revit\Autodesk Revit 2018\CollaborationCache.For Revit 2017: %localappdata%\Autodesk\Revit\Autodesk Revit 2017\CollaborationCache.For Revit 2016: %localappdata%\Autodesk\Revit\Autodesk Revit 2016\CollaborationCache.For Revit 2015: %localappdata%\Autodesk\Revit\Autodesk Revit 2015\CollaborationCache.To locate the cache file for a project, use Windows Explorer and copy/paste one of the following addresses: The fact that cache files are created by initially opening a file from the BIM 360 Team hub and then updated each time the Revit model is synched means that a local copy of the model can be worked on in the event the BIM 360 Team service becomes unavailable. Since the local copy of the Revit model is a cache file, it is hidden from the everyday user, and is assigned an arbitrary name with letters and numbers, as depicted below. Essentially, this becomes their copy of the Revit model. Other team members can use Revit with C4R to open models from the BIM 360 Team hub, which in turn creates a cache file on their local machines. This cache file enables faster loading and syncing times when working between C4R and BIM 360 Team. Essentially, the Revit model “central file” is stored in The Cloud, with BIM 360 Team being the interface to manage and view the model.Īfter a Revit model has been processed and stored in BIM 360 Team, a cache file is created on the local machine that was used to process the Revit model.
With Collaboration for Revit (C4R) and BIM 360 Team (cloud storage space or “the hub”), Revit models are processed via C4R and stored in the BIM 360 Team hub. But have no fear, we have a recommended practice for moving forward with Revit projects stored in the BIM 360 Team cloud. With cloud computing becoming more prevalent these days, much of our data is now being stored in “The Cloud.” So, what happens when The Cloud is unavailable? Does all work come to a screeching halt? In some cases, the answer may be yes. Posted on MaAuthor: Ron Palma Revit, BIM 360
