To share parametric components

You can export style catalogs from the Parametric Models tab of the Style Palette to share parametric components with other InfraWorks users.

Note: Instead of directly sharing an exported style catalog, if a custom parametric component is added to an InfraWorks model and then that model is synced to a Autodesk Docs project, other members of that project can download a local copy of the cloud model to access and use the parametric component style.
  1. Add or modify or parametric components in the Style Palette.

  2. Navigate to the Parametric models tab in the Style Palette.

  3. Select the catalog that you want to share from the Bridge, Decoration, or Tunnel catalogs, such as Abutments, Decks, Foundations, Girders, Piers, Decorations, Tunnel Segments, or a custom catalog you have created.

  4. Click in the Catalog Editing section of the Style Palette.

  5. Specify a local or network location to save your exported style catalog.

    Note: The exported style catalog is saved as a compressed .ZIP folder and a STYLES.JSON document.

  6. You can share the style catalog with others users by directly sharing the .STYLES.JSON file and .ZIP folder with them. Once a user has the .STYLES.JSON and .ZIP file on their local system, they can import the style catalog into their model(s). See To manage styles and style catalogs for more information.
