To send the PDFs updated during the Studio session back to e-Builder for versioning, the session must be finalized from e-Builder. Once the session is finalized, a new version of the file is created in e-Builder.
All sessions using the integration must be finalized using the integration from within e-Builder. When you have finished marking up the documents in Bluebeam Revu during your Studio session, you can click Leave or close the Bluebeam application. To check the file back into e-Builder and version it, return back to the My Sessions tab and finalize the session.
All PDFs must be added to e-Builder first. For the integration to work successfully, the file must first be added to the e-Builder documents module and then added to the Studio session using the integration. Files added directly to the Studio session outside of the integration will not be versioned back into e-Builder.
Finalizing the session from Bluebeam Revu will not enable the integration to complete the whole process and send the new versions back to e-Builder.
If the session is accidentally closed from within Bluebeam Revu rather than from e-Builder using the integration, please see the article from Bluebeam on How to Reactivate a Finalized or Deleted Studio Session.
