Regarding the multi category schedules You could NWC it out into navis works then export the schedule as one excel file (within navis works takeoff). It’s not live but saving quantities with revision history has its perks when recalling cost changes.

WOW! I’ve been struggling for a while trying to find a good way to learn BI and this video makes it so easy. Love this! Can’t wait to get back into the office to start creating some dashboards! Thanks, Jeff

It is such a helpful tutorial. It is perfectly clear and understandable. Thank you for this great job!

Thank you for this great tutorial. It got me thinking of how to use Power BI

Great video! Would love to see a deep dive on power BI dashboards for construction estimating and VDC practices!

For whoever is trying to recreate the dynamo script, please read his note where it says: "REMEMBER TO CHANGE LACING TO CROSS PRODUCT" My head is frying, after spending alsmot 2 hours trying to figure out what I was doing wrong Thank you very very much for this video.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Loved this Tutorial 👏

That's amazing.. still learning dynamo to understand fully that code, but definitely showed us a way to approach 5D BIM

This is awsome video. Thanks TheRevitKid! Really appreciate it. :D

Min 50:00 is what I was looking for.

You´re the man! Great job! I´m very eager to try that Revit Power BI integration.

Any chance you will consider diving into more of the Power BI dashboards? I'd love to see your process from your actual VDC work and see the entire workflow of how you create and format your excel sheets and how you build those sweet dashboards. I work for a small midwest GC as a VDC manager and would love to start implementing this type of thing to assist our preconstruction team on bids. We have a bunch of existing excel spreadsheets but they are not formatted to be easily used in Power BI. I would love to see you take one of your old excel sheets you mentioned and show us the process of how you took it into BI and then how you would do it now that you know BI.

Great video. I don't get a chance to watch live.

I love it, Kudos to you and thanks a million.

You can make a multi-category schedule which includes all the element categories in one schedule without missing anything if you are making structural plans. You just have to do a material takeoff schedule. I have done it for numerous projects and it works. Didn't need to touch dynamo or anything else . Just Revit.

The file menu is slow because revit is going through the "recent documents" list and it can't find one for whatever reason (deleted, changed location or some server that you're not connected to). It has x amount of tries it performs and it takes time. To avoid that, just clear the recent documents list. C:/users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Autodesk/Revit/Revit{version}/Revit.ini open with text document editor. At the bottom there is section [Recent File List] File 1= path to the file, File 2 = path to the file.... Delete them. Just don't delete the parameter, which is "[Recent File List]" Thanks for the video! :)

I would love to see a video about Assemble!

This nice!! More information about this theme on the site?

46:00 i think revit 2022 can create a multi category schedule

You are an amazing person 👏🏻❤️

Can you pls make a video on how to import 3D view of revit into power BI and create a dashboard of material qty? It would great help if you can do that, Thanks.

Wanted to thank you for your video and just to let you know, I totally stole your dynamo script and did my own excercise connecting my revit data to power bi! Now if only I could manage to do the same with project online, then I would have a really powerful report tu show :)

Power BI will also live connect to Revit projects on BIM360, no need to export anything, AND you have access to EVERYTHING all at once in the entire project database.

Access is the solution

Thanks for sharing! Really nice run-through. I love that T you have on in the video, where can I get one?

please upload the scheduled dataset so that can be practiced in powe-bi

I click randomly of these 4 to enter schedule properties! Never click right lol.

Hi, great video! Thx Is it any colored filter for all color dim ant text ?

interesting way to use Revit... :)

Hi, That is incredibly interesting. Do you have a video that show us how to actually build that script? i am not Dynamo expert.

I learned alot from your video. In Dynamo, is there a way to extract Type parameters rather than Instance parameters?

Will there be more updates video related to power bi and Revit Link up

I am watching this video, is the dynamo still required in 2023 for multi category schedule, or do we have built in options in revit 2022/2023

In Power BI how have you got the Count of family Type Column?

Based!

Please do the videos short length

Nice shirt :)

*revit to txt to power BI. A bit disappointed. Dunno why expected power bi to speak directly to revit. back to python it is
