  • May 16,2025
On the 3DEXPERIENCE Cloud, all the data is stored on the 3DSpace App, but different types of files are stored together without classification. Therefore, to further organize the data as per your requirement in the 3DSpace, the Bookmark Editor app can be used. These bookmarks are stored on the 3DSpace
Bookmark Editor helps you to classify, organize, and quickly navigate through your data on the 3DEXPERIENCE cloud. Furthermore, you can also set the maturity state to the created bookmark and share it with other members of the platform while maintaining certain access rights.

Click on ‘Add folder’ and select the required file in local drive.

Remove vs delete
The bookmark editor of 3Dexperience platform offers two options for the file management: Remove and Delete. 
Remove: Thia action removes the selected file from the current bookmark only. The file remains within the Collaborative space where it was originally saved and can still be accessed through other bookmarks.
Delete: This permanent action removes the selected files from your entire platform with caution, as delete files cannot be recovered.

You can manage the maturity state of a document by clicking the Maturity icon.
Assign the required maturity state by clicking on it.
 
Thus, the Bookmark Editor allows us to not only organizes the uploaded but also gives options to upload new data to the 3DEXPERIENCE cloud. We can upload single files or even a complete folder with all the sub-folders and files. We can also maintain the folder structure and manage access rights for the members as per our requirements.

The Bookmark Editor on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides a structured way to classify and manage files efficiently.
It allows users to organize, upload, and share data while maintaining access control and ensuring collaboration within teams. 
The ability to create sub-bookmarks, upload various file formats, and manage maturity states makes it a powerful tool for handling data on the cloud. 
With features like batch upload from SolidWorks and role-based access management, the Bookmark Editor enhances productivity and data organization for users on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
