BIMx and BIMcloud are two entirely different things. 

 

In order to upload to the BIMx Model Transfer Site, you would configure your Publisher Set as described at this link. Pay especially close attention to the information under the "Upload BIMx Hyper-model" heading. 

iMac 27 (2020) 3.8 GHz Core i7; 128 GB RAM; Radeon Pro 5700 XT 16 GB GPU (macOS Sequoia)
MacBook Pro M1 Max; 64 GB RAM; 32-Core GPU (macOS Sequoia)
ArchiCAD 28/27/26/25 Full (back when Full used to mean Full) (latest builds). User since AC12 (2008).

Followup question:

I am under the impression we can also share these models via other cloud apps like Dropbox.

 

When a remote client clicks on a bimx file from a non-bimx site, are they able to see and fly-thru the model on a web browser?

 

Or are they limited to a desktop/ios/android app download? [with subsequent download of large model file]

 

Often clients aren't as tech capable as we would like and a simple double click to see it on the web seems most straightforward (afaict...maybe i'm the simple one...!)
