Autodesk Drive allows you to upload nearly any type of file. Here are the exceptions:
| File Extension | Description |
|---|---|
| exe | Executable file |
| DS_Store | Hidden file in MacOS, which can get inadvertently added when you upload an entire folder |
| F3D | Fusion 3D |
If you attempt to upload these file types, the upload will fail and you'll see an error.
We don't allow certain characters to be used in the name of files & folders.
| Character | character name |
|---|---|
| < | Left carat/less than |
| > | Right carat/greater than |
| " | Double quote-mark |
| ? | Question mark |
| Any other character blocked by Microsoft Windows | See the Microsoft documentation for details. |
We also disallow any full filename that is blocked by Microsoft Windows:
Autodesk Drive lets you open many files for web-based viewing. However, we don't support every file format!
Here is the list of file types you can view in Drive.
Even if you can't view a file, you can upload it to Drive (except the 3 file-types listed above), so that you can share it with your colleagues.
