AutoCAD Support
Clarity now supports AutoCAD Tasks to automate and gain insights into AutoCAD projects, for environments with mixed CAD packages. Clarity works with all AutoCAD based applications for AEC projects like Civil 3D, Plant 3D, Map 3D, AutoCAD Electrical, etc.
Clarity runs the following AutoCAD tasks:
- Opt-in to tracking DWG/DST files
- eTransmit
- Navisworks
- Task Targeting
- SRC (Headless LISP routines, scripts)
- BIM 360 / File-based project types
Task Dashboard: Pivot Tables
Pivot tables are now supported within the web portal, to be used for administrators to answer questions like:
- What kind of tasks failed last night?
- What kind of tasks are running?
- Which Task Servers are most busy?
- Which offices use IMAGINiT Clarity the most?
- What kind of issues are we seeing most often?

- Forms (Unified Platform)
- BIM 360 Data Connector / Extraction – Extract data from BIM 360
A new server (not project based) task has been added to Clarity 2022 which downloads Account level data from BIM 360 for Business Intelligence.
Autodesk BIM 360 and Construction Cloud through the Clarity task in 2022, downloads CSV’s of t his data and businesses can use apps like Power BI for business intelligence.
Data Reporting
IMAGINiT Clarity has support for easy data integration into Excel, Power BI, Teams and Tableau, etc.
Through one-click, an external link is provide which can then be embedded into external systems where reporting is required by using the ‘GetData’ button in the required systems without having to worry about configuring it to work with SQL and setting permissions.
Cross Project Queries
Clarity 2022 manages an index database with everything in one place where administrators can run cross project queries and visualise and analyse data through Business Intelligence systems like Power BI, Excel and Tableau.
Once an external link is generated, credentials can limit which projects are visible.
These queries can answer such questions such as what was the average size of a specific type of room/s in the last 5 projects
