Why isn't a property exported into shared parameters file for Revit?

You will not be able see a property as a parameter in your shared parameter file exported from BIMQ in three cases. 

  1. First, the most important, the property is not marked as required for the particular export setting you are using. 

  2. Second, this property does not have a mapping to Revit. 

  3. At last, the property is mapped to a parameter included in the pick list we provide in the mapping dialog for Revit.


To find out the reason, filter the property in Requirements using Filter, and recheck the above.  

  • If you are not able to see the columns for requirements, use Requirements View and click on the Use Cases you have selected in export settings and save the view. 

  • If you are not able to see the columns for mappings to Revit, use General View and click on the Revit versions you would like to work with and save the view.
