Select priority as Launchable Parameter
We sometimes have staff requesting ability to control priority of certain configured tasks. Not so much that it needs to be sent straight to the top of the list, sometimes they even want to delay the start, or push it to very low priority. We can currently do this by duplicating tasks with different priorities - could the priority be made a launchable parameter so user can select their requirement at launch time?

New Metric/ Alert - "User" links
I've started to find a lot more "User" machine links than we'd prefer to see. I'd love a metric to keep track of this or other "unapproved" link locations, like old project folders or non-library locations.
Example screenshot attached. These links should be saved in our library or in the ACC Desktop location. Not in C:\Users or via OneDrive at all.
Some metric/ alert to be able to search for a string in the "link location" you're already saving to the sql would be great.

Select-DeSelect All Days in Task Schedule
It would be swell if there was a Select All and a De-Select All option for task schedule days. When you change from On Demand to Scheduled, all of the day checkboxes are activated. One example use-case: If I need to create a bunch of tasks that run one day per week, I spend a bit of time un-checking check boxes. Be nice to click a "Uncheck All" and then check the one day I need.
See attached image.

Add Revit Version Column to Task Tables
It would be useful to be able to see and filter our tasks (completed and current) by the Revit Version of the project being run.
This would allow us to gauge how many projects are running through each version of Revit in task load across projects.

Cloud model size - host only
Currently the project home page show the model file size as summary size of the host model together with links.
I think it would be more informative to see the host model size only. Or show both: host and full size?

Purge selected categories
I need to purge periodically Revit design models, but I don't want to remove all unused elements. I need to keep many elements like tags, pipe types, duct types, etc. in the mechanical model, because they are defined in the model by the company standard. But I want to delete all Families which people load for Mechanical Equipment, Pipe Accessories, Duct accessories, etc. They contribute the most to the models file size.
It would be nice if and application "Purge Categories" can be created. There I could select the categories I want to purge from the project. In fact, this

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?

add Interference Check task
I would like to automate the Interference Check task and have it export the report

Publish Settings List Report
I'd love to be able to export a list of models with their named sets of Publish Settings. I could then see if there are any missing or misspelled sets the Print Range Clarity is looking for when exporting dwg's or pdf's.

automatically update project Revit version
It would be great if Clarity could see that a project has been upgraded to a newer Revit version and adjust itself accordingly. We have had reports of users upgrading models and not informing our BIM Manager so Clarity fails because it is trying to run tasks with an older version of Revit.

Run a Navisworks appearance profiler during an NWF/NWC to NWD Navisworks conversion
We currently have tasks set up to create NWCs so our NWFs get updated automatically, and other tasks to convert that NWF to an NWD. However, we still have to open that NWD and apply an appearance profiler file so the system colours are correct before sharing the model. It would streamline the process if we could have an option to run an appearance profiler during a Navisworks conversion task.

More control of failed tasks
Tasks that failed, I would like to Batch control what happens based on what they are. I would like to Batch re-start all of the Publish tasks. all of the Daily metrics, just batch delete and let them cycle back around for instance.

Quick Button to plot a Linked Model, But not open
For Background, I know that when I open a model we can plot a linked model from the pyRevit plot command. But is there a way to automate this function through Clarity? We have the need to refer to another discipline sheets on the hub, and not everyone publishes their sheets like they should.
We need a way to be able to quickly plot links to pdf while NOT opening the other firms model.
On the ACC, I often only have View + Download permissions to other firms models. So, we can't open those links anyways.

Add Ability to turn off Log Preview in the Task Queue Screen
While the short preview of running logs is sometimes very useful in the task screen:
There are times when assessing a long queue that it would be very nice to have option to turn off the log previews to condense the list and make it easier to find the info i'm looking for. Would it be possible to toggle on/off the log preview?

Periodic Snapshot of Tasks Dashboard
For the purpose of high level task health monitoring it would be helpful to be able to set up an Alert or something similar that would send an email containing the task metrics for the last hour, day, etc... similar to the Dashboard page from the Tasks tab.
If I could have Clarity email just me or certain admins a dashboard that shows task health for the last hour, it could help catch systemic issues with the server or task machines earlier, especially if Clarity maintenance is not in my scope of work in a given day or week.

Model upgrader option : limit action to top folder, remove sub-folders models from beeing upgraded
It would be very helpful to have an option to select only top folder without sub-folders for model upgrader task.

Task Targets Edit Form Filter
In the new task target menu can we get a search bar to filter down the list of available models. On large projects it can be hard to sort through all them.

Historic Task Metrics in Task Setup Page
For the sake of tracking the historic "health" in terms of Completion vs Error count or percentage, it would be great if this info could somehow be visualized within a Clarity project for each specific setup task.
I could see it being helpful within the setup page of the task itself to see a count of how many times that task has completed or errored out.
Separately, it would be cool also to have options for visualizing (pie chart, bar chart, etc...) which tasks in the project overall are succeeding or failing (maybe more important to see which one is

Show whether Desktop Connector is signed in
It would be great if the Task Servers tab showed whether the Desktop Connector is running, signed in, or has no project selected. More often than not I find that the DC rebooted and has the pending dialog to select projects. This go unnoticed until someone logs into the task machine or notices B360 tasks not completing. The DC looks to be crashing or rebooting exponentially more on the task machines than for regular users.
Thanks.

Only Change but with TEAMS!
It'd be awesome to run the Unified Sync command when/if Teams gets updated instead of just at a specific time. We keep having timing issues with outside clients where they will upload documents at different times of the day and we end up missing things.
