Send Parameters from Specialist

For Naviate Bimfire to work, both the specialist model and the other stakeholders need to have the same parameters in all models.

Create a parameter package based on the agreed parameters in the project. The fastest way to send parameters is as a schedule on a sheet. 

1. Make sure all Parameters that are supposed to be sent to the other stakeholders are set to the correct Category and Piers.
   For instance, FireReq_FireRatingDoor should be both on Doors & Piers.
   
   Note: By adding all parameters also to Piers, it is possible to add all parameters to one schedule.
   

2. Right-click on Schedules/Quantities in the project and create a Piers Schedule, adding all parameters.

   Note: Add parameters to the model if necessary, remember, both to the receiving category AND Piers.
   

3. Change the Name of the Schedule to something Unique. If the name exists in the receiving model, it will use the existing schedule.

   If sending parameters in different phases / adding more parameters to send, use versions to have unique names e.g., UniqueName v1, UniqueName v2, etc.
   
   
   

4. Add the Parameters from the left field to the right side by using the arrows or double-clicking on the parameter name in the left hand column.

   

   Press Ok when finished to create the schedule
5. Right click on the newly created schedule in project browser, Save to New File...
   
   Send the .rvt file that is saved to the other stakeholders and they can load all parameters from the schedule by following these steps.
