    User Delete Tasks

    Brooke Peterson · 0 · Posted

    A feature that I would love to see implemented is for individual standard users to be allowed to delete unclaimed tasks that they have created - without need to be elevated permissions to admin or co-ordinator We often get user accidentally launch a task - then reach out to admin to cancel the task. We understand they should slow down and be careful - but... Human nature... :-)

    If they can immediatley click cancel before the task is claimed it would be very helpful

    Manual Claim Mode

    Brooke Peterson · 1 · Last reply by Brooke Peterson

    My workflow and admin tasks in clarity queues would benefit greatly from a 'Manual Claim' mode in the queue. We run 3 task servers, each with usually 3 or 4 instances of revit running, along with 3 or 4 windows tasks running along side on each TS - sometimes can be up around 15-20 individual tasks running, and they each may take up to 20-30 minutes to finish depending on the task style. To further complicate matters, the windows tasks are reliant on certain revit tasks being finished to move onto next stage in the process.  Add this to the often

    Select Multiple in Task Queue

    Brooke Peterson · 1 · Last reply by Brooke Peterson

    It would be very useful to have a checkbox on each task in the queue - and have the ability to multi-select any number of tasks - then choose the action i want to apply. I frequently need to do the same thing to lots of tasks - like delete a bunch at a time, or promote a number to top of queue, that type of thing. 

  • Clarity 2026 Task Server Requirements

    Sherry Pittman · 0 · Posted

     

    We recommend that the task servers be at least comparable to workstations used in production, if not stronger, especially if you are planning on running multiple sessions of Revit and or multiple logins (not typically recommended due to permission issues).  When referring to the Revit System Requirements, do not go with anything lower than the Value, but Performance is recommended, or value with double the ram if you have large models with multiple links. If you choose to use virtualization, be aware that graphic intense tasks will not perform as well without a physical graphics card.  Refer to the Virtualization section below.

    Installed the latest Clarity Client 2026 now missing on version prior to 2026, why?

    Jason · 0 · Posted

    Clarity Client is missing on versions of Revit older than 2026.  Tried to rerun the install with a repair, nothing.  Uninstalled and ran the install again, nothing.  Uninstalled ran the 2025 version and it appears but not in 2026.  Shouldn't the 2026 version work on supported Revit versions 2023 and up?

    Anyone else seeing this and how did you fix it?

    Thanks

    Clarity Report Editing Tools

    Timothy Puccetti · 0 · Posted

    The Reports editing feature for Revit models has great time saving potential for updating multiple Revit models with new sheet information for each deliverable. After we edit the reports we use the 'Update Revit With Changes' task to implement our report updates.

    But we sorely need the ability to edit Clarity Reports for Revit with the similar basic 'database' editor features (like cop/ paste multiple) that you can use in Excel. For example when I edit a Sheet information report for our Revit models I may have dozens to hundreds of rows of data that use the same value. Currently

    Task Timeline not shown

    Bruce Gunderson II · 0 · Posted

    Hello,

    The Task Timeline is not showing scheduled Tasks. I select a day, hit View and nothing shows. Not sure if there is an issue with how I set up the tasks or something else.

    I would like to schedule the tasks to be run at night but am unable to do so.

    Support would be helpful.

    Thanks,

    Autodesk Vault connect support

    Bruce Gunderson II · 0 · Posted

    Hello,

    We have Autodesk Vault for Revit document control. We would like to connect to Vault Server and the files in Vault in order to run Tasks. It would be great to have a connect to Vault similar to Projectwise.

    Thanks,

    Can't deselect all projects at once in template task assignment dialog

    Tiffany Guthrie · 1 · Last reply by Mandi Bishop

    The dialog where you assign a template task to projects has changed. You can now filter by tags - yay! But I can no longer deselect all projects to unassign them at once. I can check the top box next to Project and it shows everything on the current page being selected, and when I check it again, everything I can see deselects. Unfortunately, when I try to apply the change, I get a message that "Tasks failed to update". The effect of this in my organization is that we have to go through 38 pages of projects to unassign

  • Clarity 2026 General Upgrade Instructions and Video Links

    Sherry Pittman · 0 · Posted

     

    Upgrading Clarity to a new version of the software requires running the Setup.exe.  While it is not as simple as running the Updater from the desktop, it is not overly complex. There are video links below on the install process.  Install Videos Below are the videos Mandi did…about 7+ minutes in on the Host video is the information about the 360 path migration. https://s3.amazonaws.com/IMAGINiTSoftware/videos/ClarityHost2026Upgrade.mp4 https://s3.amazonaws.com/IMAGINiTSoftware/videos/ClarityTaskServer2026Upgrade.mp4 If you would like assistance with the install, please contact your sales representative to purchase some Design Assist hours (perhaps 2-4 hours) for a typical installation.

    Operating System Upgrade

    Andy Brack · 2 · Last reply by Andy Brack

    My IT team contacted me and wanted to know what the best procedure is for upgrading the operating system on our Clarity Host and (3) Task Servers.  The Host is currently running Windows Server 2019 and we plan to upgrade to either Windows Server 2022 or 2025 (not sure yet).

    For the Task Servers we are currently using physical workstations (not VM) on Windows 10 22H2 and need to upgrade to Windows 11 24H2.

    Is it possible to upgrade each machine or simply rebuild each one and set things up fresh. Looking for any guidance on how this affects Clarity.

    Scheduled Task Sequence does not run

    Andrew McCarey · 2 · Last reply by Mandi Bishop

    Hello,

    We have a couple of task sequences that refuse to kickoff nightly as scheduled. They include the typical Revit Database Export, Model Metrics, Performance Advisor, then a Navisworks Export with a Post Action to BIM360/ACC. The Task Sequence does not have "Only On Change" checked, so it should be running nightly regardless of updates to the model. Is anyone else having this issue? Our team is starting to lose faith in the product.

    Thank you

    AutoCAD read only

    Derek Becher · 1 · Last reply by Mandi Bishop

    Can we get an option added to all AutoCAD tasks that will allows up to open the DWGs in read only mode? I know not every AutoCAD command may work with this, but it would be helpful to have for tasks and scripts that will still function in read only files.

  • Clarity Task Basics Setup-Above the Line

    This blog is to cover the basic task setup Above the Line

    When I say ‘above the line’ I am referring to the area shown below which is common to most tasks.

    I am using a PDF task in this example, but this will apply to most Task types.

    Transfer Standard - Overwrite

    Evgeny Kurbatov · 0 · Posted

    We have a project which is a building split by multiple partial Revit files. We need to have uniform View Templates through all the models. From time to time we transfer the view templates from one of the models to other models manually using the Overwrite option.

    Using the existing 'Transfer Project Standards' task we get duplicates:

     

    Sorry, it is not the way the task is expected working for us. We just want to overwrite existing view templates as shown on the picture above. Probably other Clarity users would need the 'New Only' option.

    Transfer Standards from a Cloud Model

    Evgeny Kurbatov · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    When we have a BIM360/ACC project all the project related models are located in the Cloud and one of the models keeps the Standards which periodically should be transferred to other models.

    The current Clarity task template allows to select a local/network file only. it is inconvenient and takes time to download the model with Standards and then use it for processing the task.

    It would be great if we can use a cloud model as a source of Standards for transferring.

    Performance Advisor Results

    Ethan · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    Results are exported as a ZIP file rather than the HTML contained within it; can the ZIP export be optional?

    Also, on the Model Metrics page, the Performance Advisor results are always cut-off when attempting to view them. Zooming out in the browser still justifies the results to the right so that when you hover over the metric indicator, the flyout information bubble is off-screen. To note, the webpage expands and you can technically scroll, but you'd have to move your cursor off the metric to scroll (causing the info bubble to disappear along with the scroll bar) or you'd

  • Clarity Task Schedule Only On Change

    Sherry Pittman · 0 · Posted

    The Only on Change setting is intended to save unnecessary tasks from running, so if nothing has changed in the model, the task does not run.

    What Determines if the Task Runs

    When setting a task schedule to Only on Change, that means that even though that task is set to run at a set day/time, it will only run if one of the following occurs:

    • The date of the target file changed in Clarity since the last time it ran?

      • You can see that date on the Project Home page or

      • The Files tab for that file

        • If a
