Desktop Connector version 16.0.0.1902 or later is required, latest version is recommended. Autodesk DWG Integrity and Migration for Docs 3.0 helps users efficiently upload local project data to the Autodesk Construction Cloud, specifically for Autodesk® Civil 3D® and Autodesk® AutoCAD® collaboration workflows. It manages the entire migration process by checking for data integrity issues, helping to fix them, and then using Desktop Connector to upload the files. The latest version (3.0) now offers Single Sign-On (SSO), a new installer, and support for long file paths. Key updates include the ability to export a Reference Relationship JSON file for reliable uploads and enhanced filtering options. The tool also features significant performance upgrades, delivering faster data integrity scans and a more responsive interface.

It enables the Autodesk Bulk Upload Tool to upload files in the correct order, ensuring project integrity and completeness. --Custom Temporary File Location Setting: Users can configure the location for temporary files generated during the creation of the Reference Relationship JSON. --Unsupported file types: Unsupported file types now align with Desktop Connector and Autodesk Construction Cloud/BIM Docs unsupported file formats. --Faster Data Integrity Checks: Improved the speed and efficiency of data integrity validation through parallel scanning, reducing wait times during analysis. --Smoother Navigation: Enhanced responsiveness when navigating back to the issue page or returning from the review page. --Quicker Access to Review Upload Page: Optimized the transition when clicking “Next” to proceed to the review upload file page. --Improved Network File Handling: Reduced processing time for data integrity checks involving files stored on network servers. --Enhanced UI Performance: Streamlined UI rendering for a more responsive and fluid user experience. --Streamlined reviewing: Easily filter and sort any list in the workflow to quickly locate files that need fixing.

2.0.0.34

Second release. Use Autodesk DWG Migration for Docs to maintain data integrity for C4C3D projects. Desktop Connector version 16.0.0.1902 or later is required. Not only does it support cleaning up integrity issues for selected data sets and migrating them to Docs, but it now also expands its capabilities to handle projects stored on both Docs and locally, ensuring comprehensive data integrity. Performs data integrity checks and fixes including re-pathing broken references and referenced files stored outside the migration set, notifying about long paths, circular references, unsupported files, and absolute paths. What's New: -Autodesk DWG Migration for Docs V2 has introduced two new tools to maintain data integrity for projects stored locally or on a LAN for future migration, as well as for projects on Autodesk Docs. It allows you to check and fix the issues below - --Missing References: There are broken links in the host drawings stored locally. After migration, missing references in a cloud project can lead to data inconsistencies, functionality issues, dependency problems, and maintenance difficulties, impacting system performance, and overall project effectiveness. --Related Data: When the referenced files are not located in the same folder that is being migrated (or inside one of its subfolders), they will not be uploaded together with the host file. They then might result in broken links. --Circular References: This will result in an unhealthy project where various collaboration issues could take place. --Absolute paths: When files are shared among multiple users or across different systems, these absolute paths may not resolve correctly on every system, leading to broken links and errors. -Enhance your efficiency by using filters for reference types or status, enabling you to resolve multiple issues at once.
