How many seats of Autodesk Docs will current subscribers to the AEC Collection get?
Seats of Autodesk Docs will be added to current AEC Collection subscriptions at a 1:1 rate.
How will I know I have access to Autodesk Docs?
Single user subscribers to the AEC Collection will see Autodesk Docs added to their AEC Collection entitlement on February 9th.
Multi-user subscribers to the AEC Collection will see Autodesk Docs added to their Autodesk Account between February 15th and April 30th.
How do I access Autodesk Docs?
Once you see Autodesk Docs added to the AEC Collection in Autodesk Account, have the contract manager click on “Access Now” next to Autodesk Docs. This will bring them to a page where they’ll be prompted to create an Autodesk Construction Cloud account which will have access to both the Autodesk Construction Cloud and BIM 360 platforms.
For contract managers of single user subscriptions of the AEC Collection, Autodesk Docs will show up as a product under the AEC Collection. For contract managers of multi-user subscriptions of the AEC Collection, Autodesk Docs will show up as a separate line item in Autodesk Account.
Once your Autodesk Construction Cloud Account is created, your account admin will need to invite users who will be project administrators. From there, the project administrators can begin creating projects and inviting users. Users can also log into acc.autodesk.com to access their project list.
If you have an existing BIM 360 account, hitting “Access Now” will enable access to the Autodesk Construction Cloud on the US data center.
