Issues Addressed
BIM File Preview - Pre-transcoding
Pre-transcoding of supported BIM files greater than 10MB is re-enabled in all production environments. It was temporarily disabled due to storage issues which have since been resolved.
The feature is available to all customers that have the Specialized File Handler enabled on their domain.
Error while creating Trainable Classifiers
The customer was unable to create a trainable classifier and encountered an error ‘Creating the classifier failed. Unable to prepare training dataset.’
Issue with sending signature requests
The signature requests sent to some external stakeholders were not delivered, and no error was shown. This caused the requests to expire without any action being taken.

These changes will be available to all users by November 14, 2024.
