Revit – Loading Autodesk Family

By Garry Stockton

Load Autodesk Family

The way we load Autodesk Families changed when Revit 2021 was launched. This feature came out as a 2021 update, but is now built into 2022, and the 2021 Download Autodesk Content tool has been removed from the Insert tab.

I like this new method for users to access content. The old way was prone to install errors, since it involved a separate download during installation, and of course required an internet connection at that time. This alleviates those issues and reduces frustration with Construction professionals not being able to find critical specific design content.

HVAC/Electrical/Piping Content
