About Model Status

Model status is indicated by the icon displayed in the lower right corner of a model tile. Model status can change depending on whether a model is locally stored or hosted in an Autodesk Docs project. You can review all models and model status from InfraWorks Home.

Model Status	Icon	Description
View Only		This model has been uploaded to an Autodesk Docs project folder and was defined by an administrator as a view only model. Until a project administrator changes your access permissions for this model, it cannot be opened in the InfraWorks desktop environment. Clicking a view only model tile in InfraWorks Home will open the model in Autodesk Viewer.
Read Only		This model has been uploaded to an Autodesk Docs project folder and was defined by an administrator as a view and download model. The model can be opened in the InfraWorks desktop environment but cannot be synced back to an Autodesk Docs project. If you do not have a subscription to InfraWorks, you can open this model using a trial version of InfraWorks, but cannot make edits to the model. If you have a subscription to InfraWorks, you will be able to edit the model locally on your desktop, but will not be able to sync your changes back to the Autodesk Docs project until a project administrator changes your access permissions for this model.
Cloud Only		Cloud only models have been uploaded to an Autodesk Docs project folder that you have access to, but have not been opened on your local instance of InfraWorks. Cloud only models are not cached locally. Clicking a cloud only model tile in InfraWorks will open the model in the InfraWorks desktop environment, and will begin the creation of a local cache for this model.
Local		Local models are stored on your local system or a mapped network drive, but are not associated with an Autodesk Docs account. You can share the .SQLITE model file and associated model resource folders directly with others to collaborate on this model offline. If you want to collaborate on this model in the cloud, upload it to an Autodesk Docs project folder.
Existing Cloud Model		Existing cloud models are models that were created and published to the cloud in previous versions of InfraWorks. These existing cloud models can be downloaded and opened as a local model, or uploaded to an Autodesk Docs project. Clicking an existing cloud model tile from InfraWorks Home will prompt you to choose whether to upgrade a local copy of the model for use in the latest release of InfraWorks, or to upgrade the model and upload it to Autodesk Docs for cloud collaboration.
Locked		Locked models are cloud only or cloud shared models that can be opened and viewed in your local instance of InfraWorks, but cannot be edited or synced. A model is given locked status by an administrator of the Autodesk Docs project it belongs to. Contact your project administrator to unlock the model.
Cloud shared		Cloud shared models have been uploaded to an Autodesk Docs project. Clicking a cloud shared model tile will open the model in InfraWorks desktop environment. Once opened in InfraWorks, the model is cached locally to improve performance. If you have sufficient access rights, you can edit the cloud shared model then sync your changes back to the Autodesk Docs project for other members of the project to download. Tip: Hover over to view the location of the local cache for this cloud model.
Out of date		Indicates that the cloud model was updated by a team member in the Autodesk Docs project. Open the model and sync to fetch the latest changes.
Disconnected		This model is no longer connected to an Autodesk Docs project. To delete the local instance of this model, click the delete local cache button on the model tile. To continue working on this model, create a local duplicate of the model, or restore the deleted cloud model from Autodesk Docs.
Model Builder Cloud Model		This model has been created with Model Builder and can be downloaded for use as a local-only model.
Sample Model		This model is a sample model provided by the InfraWorks team. Sample models are available for download as local copies. Once you've created a local copy of a sample model, you can publish it to a different Autodesk Docs project if you want to test out cloud collaboration workflows.
