View the past actions that you or others have performed with regards to your drawings and set up the Activity Insights storage location.
Set Activity Insights File Location
The default location for the Activity Insights Event Location is C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\Autodesk\ActivityInsights\Common. This means that by default only your own events are logged to this location so only those events will display on the Activity Insights palette. Change this to a shared location so that any drawing activity is logged in a single, shared location regardless of who works on it.
- Click
Application button
> Options.
- On the Files tab, click the plus sign (+) to the left of Activity Insights Event Location to expand the node.
- Select the current file path and click Browse.
- Browse to and select the desired shared location, and Click OK.
Note: AutoCAD LT does not currently support viewing Activity Insights. However, AutoCAD LT does support logging the drawing activity. To make sure you capture all drawing activity, your collaborators using AutoCAD LT should set this system variable on the command line to the same shared location.
