Question: 

How do I prepare my OpenBridge data to be published to an iModel?

Answer:

For projects with a single bridge model, you can publish the model directly from the file that contains the bridge model. No other work is necessary.

For projects with multiple bridge models, a container file is recommended.

If you only need to publish the bridge models from a container file:

1. Create a 3D container file with OpenBridge Modeler.
   • This container file needs to be created from the correct seed file in the Workspace used by the dataset.
   • The container file needs to have the correct GCS for the project.
2. Attach all needed/required reference files.
   1. Ensure the Reference Display = ON for each reference attachment you want to show in the iModel.
   2. Set the references within the “container” file to a minimum nesting depth of 1

For federated multi-disciplinary projects, please refer to the following reference:

Note: Make sure to attach the bridge file to the Default (2D) model in the project container file.
