How to manage the settings related to BIM Source Files in DS Command
Inside DS Command, you can manage all the settings related to particular Files, such as:
File Management Principles:
In Deep Space, it is important to be aware that a given Source File Name must be unique in your entire workspace.

File Attributes |
Choose an Attribute set for the file here. This will populate the File Metdata input table as part of the Deep Space Asset solution, and you will be able to manually enter metadata here. |
Archiving Files
Archived or Inactive Files will generally be hidden from all App dashboards by default.
To Archive a file, you should un-tick the "Active" field in the BIM Files management page:
DS Command >
BIM Files >
Active column
Deleting Files
If you have permissions, you can delete BIM Files. Note that this is a dangerous activity, as you will orphan any extracted data from that model. It would generally be advisable to use the 'Active' flag to Archive a file.
However, if you are certain that you want to delete the file and you understand the risks:
DS Command >
BIM Files >
Tick the file >
Click Delete
