Troubleshooting & FAQ
My reports aren't syncing to Autodesk — what should I check?
Data syncs only after daily reports are signed. Unsigned reports are not transferred. Also verify that your Autodesk account has the Build and Docs modules enabled and that the Raken app has been installed from Account Admin in Autodesk before connecting in Raken.
Does this work with both BIM 360 and ACC Build?
Yes. Both platforms are supported. The document sync destination differs slightly — BIM 360 uses the Document Management folder, ACC Build uses the Documents tool — but the connection process in Raken is identical.
Does the embedded experience replace the document sync?
No — they're separate features. The document sync pushes Raken content into Autodesk Documents automatically. The embedded experience gives your team access to the full Raken app from within your Autodesk account. You can use both simultaneously.
