This article describes how you can install Solibri Extensions inside Solibri Office that have been purchased in the Solibri Solution Center. As Solibri Extensions are installed inside Solibri Office, local administrator rights for the computer are not typically required.
Solibri Extensions provide a convenient cloud-based solution for delivering additional resources to the user for tools such as COBie or custom solutions. An extension can include Rule Templates, Rulesets, Classifications, ITO Definitions and many other resource types.
Note
Prior to installing in Solibri Office, a Solibri Solution Center (SSC) administrator must have purchased and assigned the relevant licences to the user.

This article describes how you can make use of the Resources installed by a Solibri Extension. Solibri Extensions provide a convenient cloud-based solution for delivering additional resources to the user for tools such as COBie or custom solutions. An extension can include Rule Templates, Rulesets, Classifications, ITO Definitions and many other resource types.
The number of possible Resources that may be included with a Solibri Extension varies significantly. Unlike the standard Resources that install with Solibri or are available through a company network, Solibri Extension Resources are available through their own tab within each of the relevant dialogs (Rulesets, Classification or ITO Definitions etc).
