Data Exchange - Grasshopper, Early Access
, EnglishGeneral Usage Instructions
- The Grasshopper user must have an Autodesk® Construction Cloud™ (or trial) license to access projects on ACC. Ensure that you are signed in to ACC to launch the Autodesk® Revit®. ACC uses the Autodesk credentials.
- Important: Data Exchanges are only supported for US-based hubs and projects currently.

Grasshopper Connector’s Nodes usage
1. Get Exchange
This node is used to get Data Exchange from ACC and share the Data Exchange information as an object in the output node after authentication. This node provides Data Exchange as output after fetching from ACC.
2. ExchangeInfo
This node takes Data Exchange as input and provides specific information about the Data Exchange in the panel through separate outputs. You can view the Data Exchange information by using this node.
3. Receive Exchange
This node is used to receive Data Exchange. This node takes Data Exchange as input and provides DXData as output.
4. Convert To Geometries
This node is used to process the Data Exchange and get Geometry. This node takes DXData as input and provides Geometry as output. You can preview the Geometry in the Rhino using this node.
5. Convert to Parameters
This node is used to process the Data Exchange and get Parameters. This node takes DXData as input and provides Data Exchange Parameters as output. You can view all of the Data Exchange Parameters by using this node.
6. Filter By Parameter
This node is used to filter the required data from Data Exchange. This node takes DXData, Parameter Name, and Parameter Value as input and provides DXData as output after filtering the data based on user input.
7. Read Object
This node is used to get the baked Geometries list and their Attributes. This node takes single or multiple Geometries as input and provides Geometry lists and their Attributes as output.
8. Send Exchange
This node is used to send the Data Exchange. This node takes Data Exchange information, Geometry list, and Attributes as input and provides the send status of the Data Exchange as output.
9. Bake
This node is used to create baked geometry. This node takes Geometry and Parameters as input and shows the baking status as output.
