Promote File Directory to Vault Items

This sample demonstrates how to use coolOrange powerVault (or powerJobs) to promote a list of Autodesk Vault files into matching Vault Items.

The script is intended for Vault administrators and automation users who need to batch-create or synchronize Items from existing vaulted files. This is particularly useful when connecting an existing Vault that does not use Items to Fusion Manage via the Autodesk Connector.


What this script does

  • Reads a list of files from a Vault directory
  • Creates corresponding Vault Items (if they do not exist)
  • Links files to their matching Items
  • Can be executed via:
    • powerVault
    • powerJobs Processor

Prerequisites

  • Autodesk Vault (Professional)
  • Windows PowerShell
  • coolOrange powerVault or powerJobs

Download and install powerVault

  1. Download powerVault from:
    https://download.coolorange.com

  2. Install powerVault following instructions in email

  3. Check out https://doc.coolorange.com/projects/powervault/en/stable/getting_started/

  4. Verify installation by opening a PowerShell session and running:

    Import-Module powerVault
    # Use your login info, of course
    Open-VaultConnection -Vault PDMC-Sample -Server localhost -User Administrator -Password ""
    Show-Inspector $vault
