How to add members from BuildingConnected to Autodesk Construction Cloud

If you use Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), you’ll want to make sure all your users in BuildingConnected are also in your ACC account. BuildingConnected provides a helpful tool to get all your employees into Construction Cloud.

Note: You must be an account administrator in Autodesk Construction Cloud to add members to ACC.

You can add members from BuildingConnected or from Autodesk Construction Cloud.

• From BuildingConnected
• From Autodesk Construction Cloud
  
  

From BuildingConnected

First, click on the building icon on the menu on the left-hand side.



Navigate to the “Company Members” tab.

You will see a list of all the members in your BuildingConnected company. To add these members into Autodesk Construction Cloud, you have two options:

- Export all members from BuildingConnected and import into Autodesk User Management
- Add members directly from BuildingConnected (Limited to 100 members at a time)

1. Export all of your company members from BuildingConnected and import them into Autodesk's User Management at manage.autodesk.com.

1. Click "Export". A CSV file of your members' information will be downloaded to your computer.
2. Sign in to your account at manage.autodesk.com.
3. Select User Management > By User in the navigation menu.
   
   
   
   
4. Select a team to which you want to invite users and click Invite "Users".
   
   Note: If you use classic user management, see Add users in classic user management.
   
   
   
   
5. Select the "Import" tab and click "Upload CSV File".
   
   
6. Select the exported CSV file from your computer.
7. Click "Continue". You can continue working while the file is uploading. A notification displays when the import is complete.
   
   
   
   Note: If there are any errors in the file, you will receive a notification and be able to download a log of the errors. Click "Download error log" if applicable. You can click "Ignore errors and continue" or review the errors and update your file. Once ready, come back to click "Upload corrected file" and select your updated file. 
   
   
   
   

2. Import 100 members at a time directly from BuildingConnected into Autodesk Construction Cloud

1. Click “Add Members”.
   
   Note:
   - 100 members can be added to ACC at one time. If you have more than 100 members in your BuildingConnected company, you will see a message asking you to confirm that only the first 100 members will be added. You will have to come back to import each 100 extra members in your company. Click "Add Members" to confirm.
   - Any members who are already in your ACC account will not be included.
   
   You will be taken to Autodesk Construction Cloud's Account Admin portal. The email addresses associated with your team members will populate into the "Add account members" field.
   
   
2. Click "Enter". The members will be listed in the table below.
   
   
3. (Optional) Select a "Company" or "Role" for the members. The company and role can be used to quickly apply the same permissions to multiple members. Reference Companies and Roles to learn more about those values respectively.
   
   Note: Companies in ACC is not connected to BuildingConnected companies. 
   
   

    

4. (Optional) Choose an "Access Level" for the members.

   • Account administrator: Members are added as other account administrators.

   • Executive: Members are given access to account-specific dashboards in Insight. See Executive Overview to learn more.

     
     Note: Unlike BuildingConnected, only Account Admins can see ACC projects they are not a member of. If it’s important your estimators can navigate between all projects, make sure you are providing them with the Account administrator access level.

     
     

      

      

      

5. Click "Add". The users will be added into your ACC account where you can assign them licenses to Construction Cloud products like Autodesk Takeoff, Docs, Build, and BIM Collaborate.
