ExcelLink
Win64, EnglishGeneral Usage Instructions
ExcelLink fits directly into the standard Revit project workflow as a parameter data management tool.
TYPICAL WORKFLOW:
- Open your Revit project and launch ExcelLink from the Add-ins tab.
- Select one or more element categories from the category list on the left. The available parameters load automatically.
- Use the filter buttons (All / Instance / Type / Read-Only) to narrow the parameter list, then move your desired parameters to the Export list using the arrow buttons. Drag and drop to set the column order.
- Set your options: include linked documents, include type parameters, or consolidate all categories into a single sheet.
- Click Export, choose a file location, and open the resulting Excel workbook.
- Review or edit parameter values in Excel. Only instance parameters that are not read-only can be written back to Revit. Do not modify or delete row 1 (hidden metadata) or column A (Unique ID) — these are required for import to function correctly.
- Click Import in ExcelLink, select the Excel file, and the updated values are written directly to the matching Revit elements.
CONFIGURATION REUSE
- Save your category and parameter selection to a configuration file for repeated use across sessions or projects.
OFFLINE USE
- ExcelLink validates your license online but supports offline use for up to 30 days from the last successful connection.
