How to start viewing your models in the BIMcollab WebViewer.

Updated over 4 months ago

To upload your first model, sign in to the BIMcollab Space, make sure you have the appropriate permissions to upload models, and then proceed to upload your models.

Sign in to BIMcollab

Sign in to your BIMcollab Space using your credentials to access the Webviewer, where you can upload your models.

  • If you're new to BIMcollab and don't have a BIMcollab ID, you can sign up and create a new account

  • Already have a BIMcollab ID? The next page prompts you to log in with your password. If you've forgotten your password, you can reset it by clicking on "Forgot Password."

Permissions

If you are the project owner or administrator of a BIMcollab Space, you automatically have the administrative rights to upload models to the Webviewer. However, if you're a member of the project team, you may need to confirm that you have the necessary team member rights to upload models.

💡 Tip: Please refer to this Help Center article for more information about permissions: Add a team member

Upload your models

If you have just set up your BIMcollab Space, you are automatically assigned as the Project Leader in your first project and can start uploading models to your project's Model WebViewer. Otherwise, you'll need to navigate to the specific project where you need to add your models.

  • Click on the Model tab to be directed to the Webviewer.

  • In the Webviewer, click on the "Upload button" in the Navigation panel, or drag and drop your models into the panel to add your first model. You can upload one or multiple IFC files at the same time.

Supported format: IFC files
