Bentley ProjectWise Explorer

(OP)
This question is for anyone who has experience working in Bentley ProjectWise Explorer.

https://www.bentley.com/en/products/brands/projectwise

For instance, when you open a PennDOT BAR7 ("Bridge Analysis and Rating", *.dat) file via ProjectWise, it downloads the file to your local computer.

You edit the file, run the analysis, and generate the output file (*.out) on your local computer.

Then ProjectWise automatically updates the server copy of the *.dat file, but doesn't recognize the newly created/updated *.out file.

This is the case for a lot of non-bentley-integrated programs. Has anyone out there found a good way (scripting or otherwise) to automate the process of updating "secondary" files on ProjectWise?

(not just manually dragging and dropping the updated files yourself)

RE: Bentley ProjectWise Explorer

I just run the analysis every time I check a file out. If it takes a long time to run better use a different piece of software, or upload the results one by one
