How do I access to my Background Task page?

  • Step 1: go in your workspace

Background Task Type

There are 8 background task types:

  • Export Experience Images
  • Export Experience Resources
  • Upload Experience Resources
  • Export Workspace
  • Generate Experience VR Visualisation
  • Generate Parts VR Visualisation
  • Generate Interface
  • Import CAD

If you quit Deck while a background task is running, that might corrupt your action and you might lose some data, especially for the CAD import.
