Installing the 3DEXPERIENCE Add-In from the 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace

If you have the Collaborative Designer for SOLIDWORKS role, you can install the 3DEXPERIENCE add-in directly from 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace in the SOLIDWORKS Task Pane. This method no longer requires a separate download.

To install the 3DEXPERIENCE add-in from the 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace:

  1. In the SOLIDWORKS Task Pane, click the SOLIDWORKS Resources tab and select the 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace.
    The 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace tab opens and displays the Welcome to 3DEXPERIENCE page. The Update Now option appears if you are assigned the Collaborative Designer role.
    Before updating, make sure to save and close all open SOLIDWORKS files.
  2. Click Update Now to begin installing, or Skip to continue using Marketplace without the update.
  3. Follow these steps when the Installation Wizard opens:
    1. Log in again, if prompted.
    2. Install the 3DEXPERIENCE Launcher if it is not already installed.
    3. Proceed with installing the 3DEXPERIENCE add-in.
  4. After the installation is complete, restart SOLIDWORKS to apply the changes.
