Batch Upload Non-SOLIDWORKS Files to the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform

You can use the Batch Save to 3DEXPERIENCE option to upload non-SOLIDWORKS files, such as .xml, .xls, .db, and more, directly to a selected bookmark on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

This option organizes different file types into a folder structure, making the upload process simpler especially for extensive routing libraries. The Batch Save add-in keeps non-SOLIDWORKS files like RoutingLib.db and Components.xml are current.

To upload files using the Batch Save to 3DEXPERIENCE option in the Routing Library Manager:
  1. In SOLIDWORKS, click Tools > Add-ins to enable the Routing add-in.
  2. Open the Routing Library Manager from the Windows Start menu by clicking SOLIDWORKS Tools > SOLIDWORKS Routing Library Manager.
  3. Navigate to the Routing File Locations and Settings tab and click Batch Save to 3DEXPERIENCE.
    The Batch Saves to 3DEXPERIENCE Options dialog box opens. The Include Non-SOLIDWORKS Files option is selected by default.
  4. Select additional options in the dialog box.
  5. Click Add Folder to select the folder containing the files. All files, including non-SOLIDWORKS files like .xml, .xls, and .db, are included for upload.
  6. Choose the Bookmark for the upload.
  7. Click OK.
Limitations:
  • The Batch Save option uploads non-SOLIDWORKS files as separate documents that are not linked to SOLIDWORKS files..
  • It does not detect file modifications and only works for first-time uploads.
