Automating Document Issue and Revision Records using Ideate Software

Revit software enables some revision capabilities. Ideate BIMLink  [[~54]] and Ideate Sticky take over where Revit leaves off.


  • Do you need revisions that aren’t in Revision Clouds to appear in the Titleblock?
    If yes, in Revit you must update the “Revision on Sheet” option within each sheet view.
  • Do you need a schedule of all revisions on each sheet?
    If yes, chances are that you have created a workaround, because Revit only lists the latest revision.



While the methods above can get the job done, they take a lot of time and they increase the chance of errors.


Watch our short video to see how you can use Ideate BIMLink to aggregate revision information in Microsoft Excel to edit the options in bulk and Ideate Sticky to bring the formatted Excel schedule back into Revit to place onto sheets.

You’ll see how the work that has taken you hours if not days can be reduced to just minutes by completing two simple steps.
