ACC - Limitation on Revit model Linking as attachment

August 4, 2023 Gregory Lee

Issue:

The attached link for IFC or Revit files isn't showing up when the host model is linked.

Causes:

Any files that are linked through Autodesk Desktop Connector cannot be attached. They should be linked as an overlay and individually linked to the project file.

Solution:

The "Attach" option is only available for Revit models that are cloud-enabled. For all other file types, such as IFC, Autodesk Desktop Connector is required, which prevents the use of the "Attach" option. In these cases, the link should be set as an overlay and individually linked to the host model.
