    Purge selected categories

    Evgeny Kurbatov · 0 · Posted

    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

    George Suarez · 0 · Posted

    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?

    Publish Settings List Report

    Timothy Brummett · 0 · Posted

    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

    Ken Etter · 2 · Last reply by Eric Stimmel

    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.

    More control of failed tasks

    Hilary Williams · 0 · Posted

    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

    Hilary Williams · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    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

    Brooke Peterson · 0 · Posted

    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

    Holden Fleck · 0 · Posted

    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.

    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

    Holden Fleck · 0 · Posted

    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

    Angelica · 0 · Posted

    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!

    Lee Hammarback · 0 · Posted

    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.

    Upload location for custom task dlls

    ConnieGoznik · 0 · Posted

    Provide a place in the web interface for us to upload dll's for custom clarity tasks which are then distributed to task servers as required. Copying the files over to each individual task sever is a very tedious process which, when debugging, can add hours to custom task creation and testing.

    Possible functionality could also include:

    • A setting for WHEN this custom task should be "released" - so it can be scheduled at a time the task servers are likely to be idle
    • Locking this function down to "super admin" users to avoid errors
    • Task name override 
    • Task category override

    Task Sequence Error Message

    ConnieGoznik · 0 · Posted

    It would be of huge benefit to us to have the Error message from children tasks populate through to the parent task sequence. This would help us tremendously when reviewing the logs after a very large run (approx. 2900 task sequences). At the moment we need to open each failed task sequence to review the error message or use SQL & Power BI to review a process than can take hours

    common task target fIlterable

    Hi Guys, I'm wondering if the team is considering to expand on the common task target settings, to allow the target selection to be filterable like in the existing target selection task setup:

    Thanks!

    Send email on Autodesk Authentication expiry

    Micah Gray · 0 · Posted

    This token likes to expire on Clarity Cloud. Apparently this does not occur on Clarity On-Prem. There is currently no way for us to know that it has expired. Our rep from ImaginIT sends me an email and tells me to go reauthenticate.

    Proposed Solution: Send email to Company Administrator to go reauthenticate when this expires.

    Banner showing users role in project

    Angelica · 0 · Posted

    When a user is in a project on the web portal, it might be useful for a banner showing the users assigned role. This could be easily overlooked by someone that is an admin and well acquainted. But for regular users and new users, they might not understand why they see what they see per project.

    ACC upload split into multiple tasks

    Derek Becher · 2 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    When uploading a large number of folders to ACC Clarity hits a quota limit. When uploading 1600 folder it took 9 hours and timed out. I split the uploading into multiple task each around 400 folders. This worked and only took around 2-3 hours to complete. Could we get an option to have clarity automatically split ACC uploads into multiple tasks?
