In a recent article I discussed that starting with the 2018.1 release, Autodesk has included three new means of sharing Vault data outside the company firewall.  This article will focus on the second method of sharing data: Pack and Go to Autodesk Drive.  This functionality is available starting with the 2018.2 release of Vault.

Starting with the 2018.1 release, Autodesk has included three new means of sharing Vault data outside the company firewall.  All three methods use the Autodesk Cloud, are valuable, and have a place depending on the reasons you need to collaborate.  Whether you need feedback on a design, need to deliver Vaulted documents at the end of a project, or need to work collaboratively on Vaulted documents, Vault now has a solution that can help. 

If you’re a consistent user of Autodesk Inventor you’ve probably at least heard of iLogic. Maybe you think of it as “that programming thing that I don’t have time to get into and probably don’t need”. Maybe you’ve dabbled in it, or copied some rules from the Autodesk Inventor Customization Forum to save a few clicks or solve a problem. Maybe you’ve even created some complex rules to drive configurable parts and assemblies. Regardless, it’s important to have a good understanding of the tool – what it is, what it isn’t, and where it fits in the overall scheme of Inventor’s Design Automation toolset.
