End-User Limitations for Server-Based Worksharing

While working with server-based workshared projects, team members cannot perform certain operations from within Revit.

Team members cannot do the following:

  • Create, delete, move, overwrite, or rename models and folders on a Revit Server with the Open or Save As dialogs.
  • Delete, rename or move the central models on a Revit Server. The Delete and Create New commands are not available when the Revit Server folder is selected in the Open or Save As dialogs.
  • Create folders on a Revit Server. The administrator or BIM manager can do this using the Revit Server Administrator.
  • Move or copy models between Revit Server Hosts using the Revit Server Administrator.
  • Roll back to a previous version of a central model.
  • Browse to a different central model path while synchronizing with the central model.
  • Use Worksharing Monitor. Note that the Revit Server Administrator displays server, folder, and model submission history and other data.
  • Store non-workshared models on a Revit Server.
  • Directly access central files from the application menu’s Recent Documents list, or the Recent Files list of the Home page.
  • Set the Maximum History value for log files.

Revit Server administrative tasks must be performed by an administrator or BIM manager using the Revit Server Administrator.

Note: You can provide team members with access privileges to the Revit Server Administrator.
