Introduction<\/h3>\n

CATIA 3DEXPERIENCE backup is done on a secure server, and no longer on Windows directly (unless you export a copy). It’s a system designed to manage CATIA data, its maturity, revisions, who’s working on it, etc… <\/p>\n

Save with 3DEXPERIENCE<\/h3>\n

Step 1: Save on the server<\/h4>\n

On CATIA, click on the arrow icon in the top right-hand corner, then on“Save<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n

\"1-Apr-18-2024-12-57-16-3235-PM\"<\/p>\n

Your file is then saved directly on your server. By default, there is only one, named“Common Space<\/strong>“. <\/p>\n

\n

Note: when you save on 3DEXPERIENCE, a backup is automatically created in your local cache under Windows. This is used to improve performance when opening and saving. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What happened to your saved files, given that you didn’t select a folder?  Don’t panic, just follow the next step!<\/p>\n

Step 2: Organize your files in the platform’s folders<\/h4>\n

Let’s take a look at how to organize your files in the platform’s folders.<\/p>\n

\n

Good to know: the server on which files are stored (3DSpace) does not allow you to create folders. This space is used to manage access rights for other platform members. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

To find your folders, use the“Bookmark Editor<\/strong>” application.<\/p>\n

On CATIA, go to the Tools<\/strong> tab > Bookmarks<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"10-1\"<\/p>\n

A folder panel appears on the right. Simply drag and drop your part or assembly into the folder of your choice, and that’s it! <\/p>\n

You can find the same application on the platform. <\/p>\n

\"11-1\"<\/p>\n

\n

For more information on folder management with Bookmark Editor, see our article here <\/a>!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Step 3: Use the search bar for quick access<\/h4>\n

All files saved on 3DEXPERIENCE can be found using the search bar, including those that have not been organized into folders. It’s a handy tool for finding a file fast! <\/p>\n

\"12-3\"<\/p>\n

\n

Tip: Use shortcuts to filter results for Part only (3dp:) and physical products (prd:).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Now you’re ready to save with CATIA 3DEXPRIENCE!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
