To synchronize models

After uploading a model to the cloud for the first time, sync to send and get changes to the model.

Sync sorts out differences among changes sent by group members. Sync resolves conflicts using InfraWorks 360 resources and protocols. Group members only send changes to the cloud and only get changes back to update their local copy with the latest synchronized version.

• Last local change usually takes precedence over a change from the online group.
• Deletions take precedence over updates.

Optional: Open Manage Online Models (located on Home) to check if there is enough space to sync. See To view model information.

1. Click Sync to open Synchronize Model panel.
   

Common Resources are shared by the model master, proposals and scenarios. These resources include scenario definitions, storyboards, bookmarks, themes, and settings on the Model Explorer.

Click Refresh to update the Synchronize Model dialog box.

2. Review Cloud Changes, My Changes and Share My Changes for each type of model element. Select or clear the Share My Changes checkbox for elements that you do not want to update in this sync.
3. Optional: Describe changes identifying this sync. This information is stored in Model History.
4. Click Sync to start synchronization process.
Note: To regenerate the model after synchronizing, use Regenerate or press F5.
