Hi,

I have two questions about writing from IFC to Revit:

  1. Is it possible to write objects such as walls or columns from IFC as actual Walls or Columns in Revit, rather than having them as Generic Models?
  2. I am using FME 2026.2, and when I write to Revit using a template file from either Revit 2024 or 2025, the output from FME is created in Revit 2026. Why does this happen? Is it possible to create the output from FME in Revit 2025?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi ​@danii,

I’m sorry, but we are currently (FME 2026) only able to write Generic Models to Revit, and only write to the currently supported version.

      Hi ​@daveatsafe 

      Thanks for the answer!

      Do you know if FME has any plans to make it possible to write to Revit categories other than Generic Models in future versions?

      Hi ​@danii! Writing to other Revit categories isn't on the support timeline yet. I'd encourage you to submit an IDEA for this. You can do that by following this link. That way, other FME community users can upvote the idea so our Product team can review it for support in future versions of FME :)
