Meaningful File Size Reporting - Clarity and BIM360
It will surprise nobody here that sometime around August or September Autodesk decided to tell us the cumulative file size of the model(s) on BIM360. That is, that particular model and all the models that it currently has linked. Please alter the software to report meaningful individual file sizes again.

Add a Project List export button
When on the All Project page, and select the list view. Add a button at the bottom of the page so that you can export the Clarity projects.

Can we split the emails between emails from projects/scheduled tasks and emails from user run tasks?
We are constantly running automated model checks and publications, which fail due to simple things that the admin can take care of, but all users assigned to that project are getting notified. So we turn off their email notifications, which then causes them to not receive emails when they run tasks themselves.

Provide an action to set all tasks to use "Only On Change".
Clarity sends emails about inactive projects that still have scheduled tasks running. It would be great if Clarity had a "quick action" that could set all tasks for a project to run "Only On Change". Or at least provide an individual action on the Setup Tasks page that would let us toggle "Only On Change" on or off without having to go in and edit each task. It is currently much too time consuming to edit every single task to make this change.

Delete unused Tags
It would be great if we could delete unused tags with a click of a button. My current process is to click a tag and see if any projects come up, then go back to "Manage Tags" and delete if no projects came up.

Feature Request: "Run Script" Task
We are finding immense value in the basic "Run a Script" post action. However, we achieve so in a round about way by using the FileCopy task to do something meaningless, and then feed a script into the post task action to get the real work done.
It would be valuable to have a basic "Run Script" task

stp export
Revit 2025 now has the ability to export .step/.stp files. Can this added to the list of export tasks? We get requests to export parts of our Revit models to step files frequently.

Email a group email to all members of project.
It would be helpful for those instances that you need to communicate to the team at once. Perhaps the email to group could be on the Manage Users screen.

Exclude Certain Elements when purging using Revit Audit and Compact
Would it be possible to add an option to preserve cetin elements (so they don't get purged) when purging through the Revit audit and compact task. Sometimes there are unused elements that need to be kept and it would be nice to be able to isolate these and keep them from being purged.

Revit Error Handling Options
I was hoping for a glossary that would help me trace the dialog boxes back to the Revit error handling option overrides in Clarity. I'm currently experiencing difficulties in determining which option to select, and I find myself needing to individually select each checkbox. Could Clarity consider adding a feature to simplify this process in the future?

Transfer Standard - Overwrite
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.
Would it be possible to update

Scheduled maintenance announcement
It would be great to have a mechanism for announcing scheduled maintenance on the host server. While we do inform users via Teams, people regularly miss these announcements. Waht I would like to see in Clarity:
- Inputs for a message/announcement, a timespan for the maintenance window and a timespan for the announcement
- The message announcement/message being displayed at the top of *all* pages (including the login screen) during the announcement period (we currently use the Appearance fields in the Settings menu for this).
- Only admin logins possible during the maintenance period

Clarity Task Request: Enscape Batch Rendering
If you all could hack Enscape's rendering output and provide a way to batch render, I believe you'd gain some new customers and add A LOT of value for your existing Clarity customers.

Add features to family upgrade task
I'd love to see an option added to the family upgrade task to clean the backup files that are created. Also, it would be awesome to have the task when scheduled take advantage of the option of on changes only. This would allow us to have the task run nightly at a low priority and keep the library in the correct version.

Imporve PDF upload to Bim 360 Docs to support sets
for the post action task add the option to post a Mulit-Page PDF that BIM 360 Docs extracts the pages with a title block template that files in the meta data for each sheet.
See Attached Word doc
-
Remember column selection
The column selection on pages like Completed Tasks only seems to be a per-session setting. It would be nice if Clarity could remember these settings persistently per user across sessions.

Clarity should include Bim Track Integration to upload PDF and IFC files.
Hello Matt
I think Clarity should look at Bim Track Integration to upload PDF and IFC files.

Create a BIM360 Upload task to a BIM360 project
Create a BIM360 upload task that does not require Revit. this would be great to able for a local workshare project to upload weekly PDF and model exchages to a BIM 360 Docs folder.
The PDF upload option should be able to have wildcards like *.PDF for uploading singe page PDF's in batch mode.
