Establish Bridge Connections for RFI Sharing
You can share closed native RFIs between projects that have been connected through Bridge. This guide explains how to establish and manage these connections for RFI sharing.
How to establish a Bridge to another project
Before you can share RFIs through Bridge, a Bridge connection must be established between your projects:
- Click Bridge on the left navigation.
- In the Bridged projects tab, click Bridge a new project.
- In the Bridge a new project window, type a name, email, or company for a project administrator in the other project you want to bridge to. You must select a project administrator in the other project because only an administrator can accept this invitation and create the bridge.
- Select the invitee from the drop-down menu.
- Click Send invitation to bridge a project. An email invitation will immediately be sent out and will expire in seven days.
How to accept an invitation to bridge your project to another
- In the email notification that you receive, click Choose your project to bridge.
- Autodesk Construction Cloud will open in your browser with a window where you can select a project to bridge.
- Click Bridge projects.
