ACC(Autodesk construction cloud) and centralized files pushe the file to the cloud but the REvit file location is still available through a few means.
We should be able to either use
- The overridden/force location to save PDFs when specified
or a fail over of the following: - The central file location (Non-acc)
- For ACC files the Desktop connector location of the files to use to store pushbutton PDFs
- for ACC FIles w/o desktop connector a C:\_Revit\[major version]\PDF as the default or the cached location of the Revit file(Not recommended as it is hard to find)
Something like this:
using System;
using Autodesk.Revit.DB;
using Autodesk.Revit.ApplicationServices;
using Autodesk.Revit.DB.CloudAccess;
using Autodesk.Revit.DB.Events;
using Autodesk.Revit.UI;
public class RevitFileLocationChecker
{
public static string GetRevitFileLocation(Document doc)
{
if (doc == null)
throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(doc), "Document cannot be null.");
ModelPath modelPath = doc.GetWorksharingCentralModelPath();
// Check if it's a cloud model
if (modelPath != null && ModelPathUtils.TryGetModelGUID(modelPath, out Guid modelGuid))
{
try
{
// Get Cloud Model Path
ModelPath cloudPath = doc.GetCloudModelPath();
if (cloudPath != null)
{
// Retrieve the last published path from Autodesk Docs
string cloudLocation = ModelPathUtils.ConvertModelPathToUserVisiblePath(cloudPath);
return $"Cloud Model - Last Published Location: {cloudLocation}";
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
return $"Cloud Model Detected, but failed to retrieve published path. Error: {ex.Message}";
}
}
// If not a cloud model, check if it's a central file
if (doc.IsWorkshared)
{
string centralPath = ModelPathUtils.ConvertModelPathToUserVisiblePath(modelPath);
return $"Central File Path: {centralPath}";
}
// If neither, return local file path
return $"Local File Path: {doc.PathName}";
}
}
