I would like to be able to view ceiling height in a json shape file in power bi. I am unable to find the best report for linking that connects the relationship of the rooms with the ceilings and its height. I noticed that the Room Data sheets have this ability but wanted to capture in power bi with the json file.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Bruce

Is there a way to control the output file name of the BIM360 Download task? 

I am unable to control the name of the .zip file that is created. We use Panzura and it would be preferable to overwrite the same .zip file when the backup task is run as opposed to creating a new .zip every month.

Looking at our metrics across all our projects we have 7 projects that seem to be returning a few different metrics. So, the following question came up:

Is there a difference between these two metrics?

Additionally, the following metrics appear to be similar:

# of High Warnings v. # of Warnings - High Severity # of Medium Warnings v. # of Warnings - Medium Severity # of Low Warnings v. # of Warnings - Low Severity

The alerts are based on the former for each example. Does it matter? Is there a way to get all projects to report under

Hi 

Set up a task to update some families into existing project drawing. Task completes but updated file is left behind in task server temp directory

I tried to configure a post action to copy and overwrite existing file - no success

I tried to configure post action to Egnyte Upload - no success

Any suggestions on how I can update original file after transferring project standards?

I am trying to set up a task to pull models from one hub to another but I do not have the BIM 360 Migrate under synchronization. How do I get this option to show up?

Once a week my team goes into BIM 360 and does this to copy the published models out for other teams to download/use. We literally go into BIM 360 and use this command on 4-5 models each week.

I'm trying to figure out how I can automate this for the team. The Copy File command doesn't seem to have a straightforward way of copying from 1 BIM 360 folder to another. 

I am trying to create project dashboards of the revit rooms and areas in power bi. I would like to setup the data set to automatically schedule a refresh of the data as Clarity updates the data once a week. I do not want to go into each projects dashboard in power bi desktop to refresh.

Power bi is asking to edit the credentials and I am unsure how best to input this information so that Microsoft can view the data and refresh.

Thanks,

As the subject states. The support documentation says this:

Does this mean I could create an "Office" Parameter and use that parameter in the post task actions? See previous post on this here: 

Add office to the available Keywords | IMAGINiT Support (helprace.com) So, a possible post task action path could be : "\\MyServerName\[Office]\[Project]\Clarity Stuff"

It appears that way after read this:

However I don't see anything related to how to specifically call a Project Parameter in a task or post task action. 

Hello there! Passionate user of Clarity. Thank you for all the hard work! I've created a PowerBi Dashboard that works with Revit Schedule .txt files. I see there is a functionality to automate schedule exports, but the schedules save on the Clarity site. Is there an option to specify a file path on your local server? Thanks!

During project startup we've started seeing this a lot.

Multiple identical projects on the BIM360/ACC project list. This is really confusing as one of these projects is the correct project.  If we pick the wrong project during startup all the tasks fail out as clarity "Cannot find a revit model..." 

Currently or fix is this: 1) Identify if a project is set correctly (revit file names, file filters, etc) 2) If the project is set correctly- Delete the clarity project and make a new project pointed at a different project on the list (maybe this is the correct one, this

How does Clarity manage tasks when they are stacked on top of each other in the Task Timeline?

I'm comparing the Backup Project and the BIM360/ACC Download tasks. They both seem to do the same thing but with slightly different means.

The Backup Project task is more of a true backup for BIM360/ACC (appears to pull additional information like Issues, checklists, RFIs, linked files etc). This information (which could be quite a lot) is then zipped and put in a designated location (on the host or a server location). This appears to work with live Revit models (and apparently it will bundle in linked files if it can find them). 

The BIM360/ACC Download task seems to be more

If I wanted to take a large print job (several hundred pages) and break it up into multiple smaller jobs that could be distributed across multiple task servers, how would I do that?

This is what I have built so far:

1) In Revit break the print set into multiple sets "Print Set Name X of Y". This could be done relatively quickly with one of many tools (dynamo, ideate, etc.).

2) Create identical PDF tasks for each "X of Y" print set. Post task action place the PDFs in a common location. 

3) Schedule the tasks to run at

We have a project with several models and I would like to generate a report of all of the schedules that exist in each model.  I don't need all of the 'internalxx' variations of things like revision schedules and keynote legends.  Is there a way to do this?

I do not see Grids as a category (source table) option when creating a new project report.  I want to get a report of the worksets all my grids are on, if they are pinned and if they are monitoring grids in a linked model.  Also, I do not see a Grids table in the RandRevit SQL database.  Should there be?

I'm running tasks Database Export, Model Metrics and Performance Advisor.  I would assume that is enough to get column grid data into the database.

Currently we have Clarity version 22.1.18.0

Thanks!

Our host server is using a lot of memory. What are some best practices to manage the memory on the host server?

Thanks,

We need access to the svg files from the DB Export task. Where are these saved?

Thanks,

I'm trying to set up a project query for floors. I cannot find the floor category from the dropdown. 

There is an entry for Roofs but not Floors. I found MassFloors, but I don't think that's the object I'm looking for.

Patch Notes for 23.1.6 say we can use ProjectName & ProjectNumber in the Building Message, What is the syntax for that?

I've been puzzling this out for a couple days and I'm stumped. If I wanted to make the process of downloading a prepping a model for eTransmit from BIM 360/ACC, how would I do that?

The process I'm trying to replicate:

1) Publish the target model and all linked models 2) Download the target model and all linked models to a local location 3) unzip the downloaded file from BIM 360/ACC 4) Open the target model and save as central file 5) Confirm all links are now relative 6) SWC / Close 7) eTransmit target model (and run cleanup tasks)
