Understand the Design Collaboration workflow

00:03

Autodesk Design Collaboration provides a centralized platform

00:08

tailored for seamless teamwork in design and construction.

00:13

With capabilities such as real time collaboration and co-ordination,

00:18

model viewing

00:18

and markup, and mobile accessibility teams

00:22

can interact effectively and make informed decisions.

00:26

This tool enhances efficiency by reducing errors,

00:30

improving productivity, and facilitating controlled information exchange.

00:36

Visualization of model changes further aid

00:39

in making better decisions while collaboration

00:43

features strengthen team communication, resulting in

00:46

a streamlined, efficient, and integrated workflow.

00:52

Let's review the design collaboration workflow.

00:56

Your account administrator will create a

00:58

project and add the project administrator.

01:02

The project administrator verifies internal team members and

01:05

verifies that their entitlements are assigned correctly.

01:09

They will also verify whether any external team members need to be

01:14

added to the project and confirm that they have the correct entitlements.

01:19

Next, the project administrator will invite all team members.

01:24

If the team members create cloud models,

01:26

the design collaboration product is activated.

01:29

Access to Docs is provided by default and

01:32

is utilized for non cloud model collaboration.

01:36

Then, the project administrator will create the folder structure from within

01:41

Docs and add the team members and then set up their permissions.

01:46

From Design Collaboration,

01:48

project administrators will create the teams from the folder structure,

01:53

or specify folder locations for each team.

01:58

Project administrators can also modify the team members

02:02

associated with the team and manage their permissions.

02:06

It is at this time you can add users from another hub.

02:10

This setup is done through the bridge tool.

02:14

Each team has unique dynamics and the platform allows them to tailor their approach.

02:20

Whether that means linking another team's file

02:23

directly from their work in progress folder,

02:26

linking from the share folder,

02:29

or controlled information sharing from the consumed folder.
