Refresh File from Vault (Add-ins Only)

The Refresh From Vault command compares the local file version with the version in the vault. If the local version is older than the version in the vault, the vault version is copied from the vault to the local working folder and the current file is reloaded.

Which version the command retrieves depends upon the edition of Autodesk Vault .

• For Vault Basic, this command retrieves the latest version currently stored in the vault.
• For Vault Workgroup and Vault Professional, this command retrieves the correct version of the leading revision currently stored in the vault. This is not necessarily the latest version.
