How to add downloadable CAD and SketchUp files to product page?

[sophier]

Hi, 

I would like to add downloadable files to my product pages so that customers can download installation manuals, spec sheets, 2D and 3D files for the product, etc.

I've figured out how to do this for PDF files, however I am unable to do so with CAD (.dwg format) and Sketch Up (.skp) files. Do you know of a way to accomplish this? 

Thanks!

I am unable to upload the .dwg and .skp files to the File section of my site. When I try to do so, Shopify tells me that the file type is not supported.

Give me store URL with update this link file on you store.

Hi @sophier ,

I'm also attempting to add downloadable SketchUp files to my site and wondering if you ever got a helpful response and solution?

Hi @mhkuhn, 

Unfortunately I did not find a solution within Shopify, so I worked with a developer to build an app which allows me to add Sketch Up and CAD files as downloads to my site, and track the number of downloads of those files. 

Good luck with your site!

Hi @sophier,

Thanks so much for your reply. I made the mistake of assuming this would be a simple feature to add to my Shopify site! Do you mind sharing with me who your app developer was, as well as your website URL so I can see how the app works?

Thanks!
