Hello,

so far we are transforming IFC models to geodatabase feature class, which works fine so far. Unfortunately this IFC export step seems one step to many in the overall workflow and I was asked to change the workflow, so that revit project files can be used directly. 

As fme does have a revit reader I thought it would be possible, but unfortunately despite trying every imaginable parameter setting for the reader it was not possible to read more than one feature that did not contain some kind of meta data...but the “survey point” instead. 

The fme documentation also only focuses on how to export from revit to ifc and after wards use it in FME.

Is it therefore impossible to transform from .rvt files to a multipatch geometry feature class in Esri geodatabases? Or am I missing something?

Agreed! It would be very helpful to have a transformer that does the same thing as the “BIM to File Geodatabase” geoprocessing tool in ArcGIS Pro.
