Existing Ideate Automation customers that have completed their BIM 360/ACC integration do not need to take any action. The new Ideate Cloud Connector app should only be used by those who have not yet completed the (previously) manual integration process.
“Since we started developing add-ins for Revit software in 2007, we have focused on helping companies spend less time on data management and more on their areas of expertise,” said Glynnis Patterson, Director of Software Development, Ideate Software. “Now, our customers and their consultants who store Revit models in Autodesk Construction Cloud can use Ideate Automation to save even more time while reducing the chance of human error and ensuring the delivery of consistent and predictable outcomes.”
“To drive efficiency, construction teams must constantly look for ways to automate repetitive tasks,” said James Cook, Director of Integrations and Technology Partnerships at Autodesk.
“Now, customers use Ideate Automation to save time and reduce errors and rest assured that they are running these automations on the most up-to-date 3D models in Autodesk Construction Cloud.”
In addition to Ideate Automation integrating with Autodesk Construction Cloud, all Ideate Software Revit add-ins (Ideate Explorer, Ideate BIMLink, Ideate Sticky, IdeateApps, and Ideate StyleManager) are designed to be integrated with Autodesk Desktop Connector, where possible, to provide the best possible collaborative environment between ACC Revit models and other non-Revit documentation.
