Export from Revit to Excel with Ideate BIMLink

Revit software users can easily export data from Revit to Excel for superior editing with Ideate BIMLink, a Revit productivity-enhancing tool from Ideate Software. Once the Revit data has been edited in Excel, users can again use Ideate BIMLink, but this time to push the updated data from Excel back into Revit, immediately updating their models. This tool helps architects, engineers, contractors, and building owner-operators (AECO) control their Revit data with precision and speed.


Using Ideate BIMLink to connect Revit and Excel gives AECO professionals the ability to streamline time-consuming and error-prone Revit data management tasks, giving them more time to spend on valuable design activities. Exporting data from Revit to Excel for auditing and manipulating makes it easier to ensure models are clean and correct.
