Some assets are located on the factory cloud server. Cloud assets are downloaded on demand and deposited in the Local Cloud asset library on disk. You can specify alternate locations for cloud-based assets.

Cloud-based Assets
The following properties specify access to cloud-based assets.
| Enable Cloud-based assets | Enables the use of cloud-based assets through the Asset Browser. The Asset Browser displays an icon that shows the cloud-based asset enabled/disabled state. |
| Local Cloud asset library | Specifies the path to the local library of cloud assets. These are assets that have been downloaded from the factory cloud server. Use the Browse... button to modify the location where cloud assets are stored. |
| Proxy settings | Automatic proxy detection is a setting that is controlled by the LAN Settings in Internet Explorer's Internet Options. Activate this check box to override the LAN setting and improve performance when downloading cloud-based assets. |
| Restore Defaults | Re-establishes the default path locations. |
User Assets
User-defined factory assets are authored in Inventor. Those assets can be stored in a Project Library folder. Specifying the location of the Inventor project file (.ipj) makes those library assets available in AutoCAD Factory.
Libraries
| Inventor Project used to define additional libraries | Specify or browse to the Inventor project file that relates to your user defined factory assets. The project file library folders are displayed in the Asset Browser within the User Assets folder. |
