autodesk forge - Save a workshared model as a cloud model to BIM360

Question

Is it possible to save a workshared model to BIM360 as a workshared cloud model using Revit API and/or Forge API ?

I have multiple models that I wish to upload on BIM360, but from what I see the SaveAsCloudModel method that is currently available in Revit 2021 API and described in this post only works with non-workshared models. Is there any other method ?

Answer 1

The SaveAsCloudModel function is available since Revit 2019.2, and you can follow my code snippet shared here to activate the cloud worksharing:

BTW, you need to install the Revit 2019.2 service package before coding.
