All accepted CAD file formats are listed here:

CAD conversion is available to Licensed 3D RenderDraw Admin users within Salesforce.

All files processed need to be compressed into a ZIP file. Each file call made counts as an API call to RenderDraw's server, and if multiple CAD files are present, each conversion will count as an API call.
