Jim explains that Fieldwire contains a feature available in the business and enterprise plans that allows a project to synchronize with Dropbox or Box in a two-way sync arrangement.
- [Narrator] Earlier in the course…when I showed you how to add plans…to your Fieldwire project,…I showed you that one option was to…allow Fieldwire to retrieve a file…that's already stored in one of your Cloud accounts.…So, for example, if I clicked on…add another new plan to my project…and selected My Computer…I could either upload it from my device…like I showed you earlier…or I could connect one of my Cloud accounts…and then navigate within there to find…my construction drawing to upload to Fieldwire.…Now this feature here…is available in all levels of Fieldwire accounts…and it's just a one time action.…
So, using this method of bringing…construction drawings into Fieldwire,…once Fieldwire copies that PDF into your project…there's no connection that's maintained…between your Cloud copy and the plan sheets…that are processed and stored in Fieldwire.…So, let's close these dialogue box.…Go back here because what I want to show you now…is a feature that does maintain a connection between…Fieldwire and either your Box or your Dropbox account.…
