How To Create Libraries

When managing multiple product configurators that share assets, functionality, visualizations, or even entire component blocks, libraries are the ideal solution. They let you store shared resources in one central place, eliminating duplication across configurators and making them easier to maintain.

In the video example below a common function to create the same materials for two different product configurators:

• In your organization dashboard, go to Product Configurators > + Create, name it e.g. Common.
• Go into the library and click + New Building Block > Empty Package, name it e.g. MATERIALS.
• In this package, an example-block creates some blue-metal materials.
• Back to any of your product configurators, click + New Building Block > Import Building Blocks and choose:
  • Library: Common.
  • Package: MATERIALS.
  • Local Package Name: MATERIALS.
• At the top of the editor, click ... > Edit Imports, and check MATERIALS.
• Then in the code you can type MATERIALS. and you will see available block there, ready to use to replace the materials in this case.
