The Configuration tab is where you will add your projects from Autodesk and select the location in SharePoint you want to sync it to. 



Prerequisite: Create a folder with the project name or any identical name in SharePoint where you would like to sync your project. (In this example we have created a folder with the Project name in SharePoint). 



Once you have the folder created please refer to the steps below :

1. Click on the "Add Project to Sync" button under the Configuration tab in SyncEzy Portal.



2. In the window that pops up, choose your Autodesk company first
3. Select the Autodesk project from the list
4. In Project Tools, select whether you want to sync Documents, Photos or both.
5. On the right-hand side, select your SharePoint Site and Library.
6. Navigate and select the folder you want to sync to. This is the folder that we created with the project name in SharePoint. Selected tools folder (Documents, Photos) will be created automatically on this location only to sync the data.
7. Click on "Select this location" to sync your Autodesk project files to the desired location.



8. Click on Add Project when you get the message "Path selected successfully".

Once you have clicked on "Add Project" your project will be added to the integration configuration and tools folders (Documents, Photos) will be created in SharePoint under the chosen path folder during the initial sync and data from Autodesk tools will be synced to these folders. Please do not change/rename/move/delete these folders as the sync will break (Screenshot below). To learn more about path and folder structure please click here.

Please note that once you have added a project to integration, you will need to wait for the initial sync to be completed. Please do not make any changes within the Project while the initial sync is going on. Initial sync can take a few minutes (Normally 5-10 minutes, depending on the number of folder structures in your Autodesk Project. If the project size is big it can take upto 24-48 hours). Once the initial sync is completed then only you can add the data to either side to sync across (The Documents tool will be exclusively used for syncing, while the Photos tool will initially be synchronized from Autodesk to SharePoint. After the initial synchronization, the sync process for the Photos tool will be discontinued). You will receive an email notification once the initial sync is completed for that particular added project. Meanwhile, you can add more projects to the configurations if you have any. For each and every project you will receive a separate email.
