Your work can be done online in AutoCAD and stored directly in the cloud. Now, you can quickly open any DWG file stored in Microsoft OneDrive and Box with the AutoCAD web app, at the push of a button. The AutoCAD web app runs in the web browser on virtually any computer, so you don\u2019t even need AutoCAD installed on your machine to be able to open, review, and edit your drawings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn today\u2019s fast paced business environment, our customers want to accelerate business processes and power workplace collaboration, while working with a flexible, best-of-breed enterprise IT stack,&#8221; said Jeetu Patel, chief product officer at Box. \u201cWe\u2019re excited that our customers can easily access their DWG files stored in Box directly in the AutoCAD web app to get their work done anytime, anywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The integrations speed up getting into your files, as well as cut down collaboration time by allowing you to view and edit drawings in real time. You can save your updated files to OneDrive and Box without ever leaving the AutoCAD web app, letting you work without disruption.<\/p>\n<p>Partnering with Microsoft and Box also provides flexibility. For example, if you have DWG files stored in Autodesk\u2019s cloud, you can open them, with their Xrefs, on any device with AutoCAD desktop, web, and mobile apps. The same is true if your DWG files are stored in Microsoft OneDrive, and Box, although Xrefs aren\u2019t packaged. With cloud capabilities, you can store your files where you like and conveniently access them in AutoCAD from the office, the jobsite, and on the go.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to partner with Autodesk, a leader in the CAD industry, to give our customers more power and flexibility in their workflow,\u201d said Mike Ammerlaan, director of Microsoft 365 Ecosystem at Microsoft. \u201cOur customers will be able to design and make anything, as they can now open their DWG files stored in OneDrive and SharePoint with AutoCAD on desktop and the AutoCAD web and mobile apps.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The integrations are now available for all AutoCAD subscribers using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/2019\/03\/27\/announcing-new-integrations-autodesk-autocad-microsoft-onedrive-sharepoint\/?wt.mc_id=AID729583_QSG_SCL_332767&amp;ocid=AID729583_QSG_SCL_332767\">Microsoft<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.box.com\/blog\/box-autodesk-autocad-integration\">Box<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/app-integrations\/autodesk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dropbox<\/a>.
