Version History

Version Number Version Description

2.0.9

Below are a few highlights - 1. "Reference Parameters": Support reference parameters when we load exchange through Pre-filter options. Parameters like Levels and base constraints should be pulled into PowerBI. These parameters are part of the "Advanced Parameters" dropdown. 2. "Exchange Update": We have been aiming for seamless dashboard updates when an exchange gets updated in ACC. With this release, if an exchange has been updated in ACC, the corresponding dashboard will be updated by hitting "Refresh" in PowerBI 3. Performance: Project/folder navigation performance has been improved. (~90% improvement) 4. Bug Fixes: A critical bug where exchange loading used to fail in case exchange contained multiple properties with the same name but different data types. It also includes a few other bug fixes. Limitations - 1.The connector does not support reference parameters where "Data Type = Materials". One such example is "Structural Material". These parameters won't be pulled into PowerBI. 2.The connector does not support parameters with empty values. Such parameters won't be pulled into PowerBI.

2.0.8

This release contains additional feature enhancements as well as performance optimizations. Below are few highlights - 1. Supporting "Revit Element IDs" to be fetched into PowerBI dashboard for Revit 2024/25 based Data Exchanges. 2. Addition of "Last Updated" column, so users can get clarity about the exchange between ACC and PowerBI. 3. Addition of a Sample Dashboard (Template) for understanding of different verities of dashboards 4. Solved a performance issue which was impacting "Cross-highlighting and Coloring is not working for the specific large Exchanges" 5. Supporting BIM360 based Data Exchanges through direct URL. 6. A bunch of bug fixes.
