Setup BIMcloud SaaS

Step 1: Set up your BIMcloud SaaS domain

After purchasing your BIMcloud SaaS or Collaborate product, go to the Graphisoft Store to set up BIMcloud:

• Visit https://shop.graphisoft.com
• Log in to your Graphisoft account
• Click the person icon in the upper right corner
• Select the ’Company & BIMcloud’ in the menu
• Select ‘BIMcloud’ tab
• Enter your own BIMcloud SaaS domain. For example: https://myarchitecturalfirm.bimcloud.com
• You’ll use this domain to join Teamwork projects from Archicad and access your stored BIMcloud data

Step 2: Log in to BIMcloud Manager

• Open your BIMcloud Manager from a browser, using the BIMcloud SaaS domain address that you configured as part of the purchase process. For example: https://myarchitecturalfirm.bimcloud.com
• Your BIMcloud has one Company account administrator, whom you specified during the purchase process. Use this account to log in.

Step 3: Invite team members

• Invite team members to your Company account. Once they accept, they are automatically added as users to your BIMcloud SaaS.
• Go to graphisoft.com and sign in to your Graphisoft account
• Click on your avatar, then click on your email address
• Select ’Company Information’
• Go to the ‘Invite new members’ section
• Enter the names and email addresses of your team members
• Click “Send Invitation”

Don’t forget to assign licenses to the new team members.

Step 4: Add users to user groups

Once your team members are added to your BIMcloud as users, put them into user groups, using BIMcloud Manager.

To work effectively in Teamwork, each new user should be added to at least two predefined user groups: one of the Archicad groups and one of the View groups.

• Navigate to the Users page of BIMcloud Manager
• Click any user name to select it
• Click in the Add group… field, then start typing the name of the group
• When you see the group name you need, click it to add the user
• Repeat as needed to add users to any number of user groups
• Click Save to finish
