Harness Design Documents in Altium 365 Web Viewer
This November, we introduced the Harness Wiring Component as the first step to reduce the need for third-party harness tools. This month, we present Altium 365 Web Viewer support for Harness Design Documents establishing a comprehensive, interactive browser environment for harness design collaboration with no tool installation or maintenance. All project stakeholders have a single space to review, inspect, and comment on the documents of harness and PCB designs (single and multi-board). Now team members can communicate design intent more effectively and reduce misunderstandings and delays.

Once you have created your project, four tabs are available for Wiring, Layout, BOM, and Draftsman documents.

You can share, comment, and inspect your harness design documents with the Properties panel to improve communication.
