Dynamic Paths in AVAIL open a whole new cloud-storage world!
Now you can choose to host your content in your preferred cloud-hosted solution and let AVAIL manage the complexity of accessing that content at each user’s desk.
Licensed AVAIL customers have immediate access to enable Dynamic Paths for Autodesk (ACC, BIM360, etc) and Microsoft (OneDrive, Sharepoint, etc) locations through the Features section of the AVAIL Manage Portal. For additional cloud storage locations please contact AVAIL Customer Success at support@getavail.com.
Like most new technologies, the advent of cloud storage has solved some problems and created new ones. The new problem with cloud storage and local cache management is now lack of consistent, firmwide location for a cached file. Enter Dynamic Paths.
When content is indexed in AVAIL from a source location that is recognized as a cloud cached location such as Autodesk Docs, Microsoft OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, and others, AVAIL will automatically determine each providers caching strategy and “dynamically” resolve the correct address when that content is shared with another user.
