Alpha Revit Add-In
Alpha Revit Add-In for exporting and configuring 3D models
Revit Add-In
The Alpha Revit Add-In connects Autodesk Revit to the Alpha platform, allowing you to export 3D models, map Revit types to Alpha product types, and manage type coverage directly from within Revit.
Ribbon Overview
After installation, the add-in creates an Alpha tab in the Revit ribbon with four panels:
Preferences Panel
| Button | Description |
|---|---|
| Settings | Open the settings window to configure the connection, export preferences, and environment. The button label also shows the installed add-in version |
| Console | Open a live log console that displays add-in messages in real time |
| Log | Open the current session log file in your default text editor |
| Settings (stacked, file icon) | Open the raw settings JSON file in your default text editor for manual editing |
Export Panel
| Button | Description |
|---|---|
| Export Selected Groups | Export the selected model groups and upload them to the type-level product coverage matching each group's name |
| Export Visible in View | Same as Export Selected Groups, but sources every model group visible in the active 3D view instead of your selection |
| Export As Project Variants | Export selected groups as project-specific concept overrides or variant facade models, auto-routed by the target project's model catalogue |
Configure Panel
| Button | Description |
|---|---|
| Configure | Open the house configurator: pick a project, a house, the static model tree and option choices, and produce the configured Revit document |
| Block Configure | Configure an entire block of houses in one pass and produce a single Revit document with all houses positioned |
Tools Panel
| Button | Description |
|---|---|
| Re-upload | Re-upload existing GLB, RVT, and PNG files from the export output folder without re-exporting from Revit |
| Health Check | Run diagnostic checks on the current model to detect common issues before exporting |
| Rename Group | Rename the selected model group so its name matches an Alpha product |
| Missing Coverage | List model groups whose names do not match any type-product-coverage in the Alpha database |
| Static Names | Browse all static model names that the configured type can resolve |
| Rename from Clipboard | Rename the selected model group to the text currently on the clipboard |
| Rename and Upload | Rename the selected group from clipboard text, then immediately export and upload it |
| Check Existence | Check whether each selected group's name exists as an Alpha product |
