    Scheduled Task Post-Action not Completing Consistently

    Mike Underwood · 4 · Last reply by Mike Underwood

    We have several tasks setup for Navisworks nwc exports on schedule, with a 'move' post-action to a UNC path) on each. 

    We're trying to troubleshoot with our IT dept two scheduled tasks that are showing complete, but not all of the exported nwc files are moving over.  No errors shown.  The files just don't show up.  The funny part is, when I manually run these two tasks, they execute without any failures. 

    Part of our troubleshooting is to change the scheduled times for these two tasks, in case there is another activity on the server(s) that is blocking the move

    My Data Sheet Room Template gets deleted.

    Nick Bower · 2 · Last reply by Nick Bower

    We have not upgraded to 2020 yet, but we are having trouble publishing a model on BIM 360 Next Gen.  I am using the publish to C4R task and all i would like to do is publish the latest model.

    I have verified the Revit user logged into the task server is also invited to the project and can access it normally.  I have also tried with myself logged in. 

    It appears that our OAuth setting are still ok.

    Room data sheets: Sum() function for category tables

    Andreas Dieckmann · 0 · Posted

    Similar to the Count() function for category tables in room data sheets, a Sum() function would be very handy - especially if it would work in conjunction with the Count() function.

    Use cases:

    • Sum of window area per window type (and number of units of that type)
    • Sum of shelf length per shelf type (and number of units of that type)
    • etc.

    Create a "Revision Record" and a "Milestone Archive" feature.

    Peter DeRooy · 0 · Posted

    Create a "Revision Record" as part of the project.

    It would show the sheet revisions per model. The current revision could be collected by Model Metrics or dbexport tasks or the Revit Clarity Client addin. Everytime a new revision is added to the project revisions it gets added the  Revision Record.

    Once the current revision is added to a Sheet, That Sheet number and name is added to the Revision Record.

    This would be displayed in a webpage like a schedule to show all the sheets revision history per RVT model for the clarity project. This record should be exported

    Dynamo Tasks: Ability to let Clarity ignore node errors

    In some cases it can't be avoided that certain nodes in a graph throw an error. It would be great if we had a way to mark these nodes in some way (e.g. by renaming them to "ClarityIgnore:Orginal node name") so they don't show up as errors in the log. People tend to get jumpy when they see the word "error" in a log... ;-)

    Download BIM360 RVT file that was uploaded with a Docs license.

    Right now Clarity cannot pull down a rvt file if the rvt file was uploaded into BIM360...it requires a model to be published with a BIM360 Design license.

    We would like CLarity to report the filename and path for the keynote file that is used for each model.  Is there a way to get Clarity to report this?

    Project Database Error

    Nick Bower · 3 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    We keep receiving Project Database errors and I am trying to track down the root cause.  The verbiage from the error report is below.  The project we are running this on was not started with our Revit Template so we are kind of guessing as to what it could be, but i suspect that maybe their Sheet Order Parameter.  It appears that the sheet order parameter listed in the error below is Text and not an Integer or Number.  Any help would be greatly appreciated so we can avoid this sort of thing going forward.

    Does Clarity 2019 support Revit 2020?

    Samuel Leo · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    We have installed the latest Clarity update on both Central Host and Task Server but don't see Revit 2020 support yet.  With Revit 2020 out, and the so many improvements implemented that would benefit all disciplines, we are seeing an increase interest to start using Revit 2020 even before it's 1st Service Pack is released.

    Filter Files Based on a Sub-Folder

    Tom Kemp · 5 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    We have a couple of standard sub-folders under our working folder where our models live.  1 is for archive copies of the Revit model, the other is for linked Revit models from consultants.

    We would like to be able to include the linked models folder, but exclude the archive folder.  I can do this with the individual files, but it would be much easier to be able to set those up when we create the project and not have to manage it with each archive or update.

    Links in Emails: URL formatting

    Andreas Dieckmann · 2 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    Links in Clarity-generated emails are by default formatted using HTTP and the server name, e.g.:

    http://SERVERNAME//CentralAdministrator/ProjectTasks/TaskStatus/178

    What do we need to do in order to have them formatted using HTTPS and the server URL, e.g.:

    https://SERVERDOMAIN.COM/CentralAdministrator/ProjectTasks/TaskStatus/178

    We tried the settings "Notify URL Type" (both with "External" and "Fixed") and "Notify URL location" in the Settings menu but instead of the URL we entered links in emails now pointed to the server's IP address (and no https).
