Bluebeam is a software platform mainly used in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry for creating, editing, marking up, and collaborating on PDF-based project documents. It helps teams review drawings, plans, and construction documents in real time, even when working remotely. One of its key products, Bluebeam Revu, includes tools for annotations, measurements, estimations, and document management. Within Unifier, users can send their documents and files to Bluebeam for review sessions. Users can bring the reviewed files and markup comments back into the application to take the next appropriate action.

Unifier now integrates with Bluebeam Cloud services as the central platform where project files, markup data, and collaboration sessions are managed. Bluebeam Revu connects to Bluebeam Cloud to access and participate in these sessions and workflows. Users must have a valid Bluebeam account and appropriate subscription access to collaborate through Revu and related cloud services.

The Bluebeam administrator must complete steps to assist in the initial setup and configuration of Bluebeam as an integrated collaborative third-party program within the Unifier environment. These steps include the Bluebeam admin taking the following actions:

  • (On-premises only) Download Primavera Unifier Wallet (a zip file) from My Oracle Support for Bluebeam. For more information, see the Primavera Unifier Installation Guide for On-Premises.
  • Enable Bluebeam integration.
  • File a service request with Oracle Support for OAuth authentication.
  • (On-premises only) If your company’s network policies prohibit access to external services, enable and allow the following hosts and ports in your network:
    • *.bluebeam.com:443
    • *.amazonaws.com:443
