Bentley ProjectWise Integration - Automated Sync

Common Data Environments are the source of truth repositories for the majority of large-scale Infrastructure project data. This data needs to be appropriately shared between different people, teams and systems to enable collaboration and decision-making. However relying on manual processes to transfer data is extra work and introduces human error, resulting in teams having incomplete or, worse, out-of-date information.

The Bentley ProjectWise integration allows you to connect your Common Data Environment to Sensat to automatically access files so they can be visualised together seamlessly with all your other project data. This allows you to maintain a single source of truth in ProjectWise and have confidence that content visualised in Sensat is always up-to-date, covers all disciplines, and retains its metadata.

Key features

  • Visualise geolocated data stored in your CDE seamlessly together.

  • Automated hourly sync to Sensat based on your approval workflow.

  • Eliminate the risk of data being out of date or missing entirely from Sensat.

How it works

An administrator first needs to enable the integration and configure which folders to sync from ProjectWise to Sensat.

Every hour changes made to files in ProjectWise will sync to Sensat. This includes new files, revisions, changes to any file attributes, and deletions.

The following file types will be automatically synchronised: .dgn, .dwg, .glb, .ifc .dxf, .rvt, .fbx, .nwd. If other files are present in the search results they will not be visible in Sensat.

Once files have been synchronised to Sensat they can be visualised in the same way as manually uploaded files.
