We are excited to announce the public beta launch of Data Exchange for IFC, expanding multidisciplinary collaboration even further!
What is Data Exchange?
Today's complex AEC projects often struggle because design data is locked inside large model files, hindering effective collaboration. Autodesk Data Exchange addresses this exact challenge. It enables you to share precise subsets of your design model data - like structural elements, or specific equipment - instead of the entire file. Data Exchanges can be effortlessly utilized within and beyond Autodesk applications, such as Revit, Inventor, Rhino, Tekla, Power BI, and more. Unlike sharing traditional static files, Data Exchange lets you securely and flexibly share only what you need, safeguarding your intellectual property.
Introducing Data Exchange for IFC
Data Exchange for IFC is designed to revolutionize how data is shared and consumed. It allows you to extract a specific subset of your IFC files as granular data, which can be loaded with other Data Exchanges connectors, like Power BI and Revit.
Instead of linking massive IFC files, you can create durable references by loading the Data Exchange, which is updated automatically whenever a new version of the IFC file is published.
