How Autodesk Project Members Sync to Breadcrumb Site Hosts
Syncing Project members (Autodesk) and Site Hosts (Breadcrumb)
When a member is added to an Autodesk Construction Cloud project and assigned a role that has been synced to Breadcrumb, that user will automatically sync to Breadcrumb as a Site Host.
Site Hosts in Breadcrumb are responsible for managing workers, documents, and site activities.
How the Member Sync Works
The synchronization follows this process:
-
A role is created in Autodesk that meets the sync requirements.
-
The role syncs to Breadcrumb.
-
A member is added to a project in Autodesk.
-
The member is assigned to the synced role.
-
The member will automatically appear in Breadcrumb as a Site Host.
This allows Autodesk user management to control which individuals can manage site operations in Breadcrumb.
Step-By-Step
Step 1 — Add the Member to the Project
-
Open the Autodesk project.
-
Navigate to Project Admin.
-
Select Members.
-
Click Add members.
-
Select the user you want to add to the project.
Step 2 — Assign the Synced Role
When adding or editing the project member:
-
Assign the user a role that has synced to Breadcrumb.
-
Save the changes.
Once assigned, the user will automatically sync to Breadcrumb as a Site Host.
Step 3 — Configure Permissions in Breadcrumb
To ensure the Site Host has the correct level of access within Breadcrumb:
-
Navigate to Permissions Templates in Breadcrumb.
-
Create a permissions template for the corresponding role.
-
Assign the appropriate permissions required for that role.
This ensures that each role has the correct access rights within Breadcrumb.
Important Notes
-
Only roles that have synced from Autodesk to Breadcrumb can create Site Hosts.
-
Members assigned to non-synced roles will not appear in Breadcrumb.
-
Permissions must be configured using Breadcrumb permission templates to control what Site Hosts can access.
