To open an existing model

Open an existing model from InfraWorks 360 Home or from Manage Online Models.

To open an existing model from InfraWorks 360 Home, click on the model tile for the desired model.

Note: It is recommended to make a copy of an existing model before opening it in a newer version of InfraWorks 360. Once you open a model in your current release of Autodesk InfraWorks 360, you will no longer be able to open that model in previous versions because of schema and data definition changes. Making a copy of a model before opening it preserves the original model so it can be opened in previous versions.

If you do not see a tile for a model, check your filter settings on the drop-down menu.

Filter Models

Filter the display of model tiles by Date, Name or Author. You can also find a model b y entering keywords in the search bar. See InfraWorks Home for more about filtering models.

Note: You must be signed-in to Autodesk InfraWorks 360 to view cloud models and collaborate with design groups. See Sign-in to InfraWorks 360.
