Revit Drafting Automation Plugin
Budget: $5,000 – $10,000 USD
I need a purpose-built Revit add-in, written with the Revit API (C#), that streamlines my documentation workflow. The brief is clear: create a custom plugin focused on automated drafting and modeling tasks, with special attention on exporting documentation sets. With a single command I want to publish every selected sheet to PDF, DWG, and DWF—file names and folder structure should follow our project parameters automatically.
Core expectations
• A ribbon button that opens a simple UI where I can pick the sheets or views to include, choose the export formats (PDF, DWG, DWF), and define an output folder.
• The add-in must remember the last used settings per project.
• Exported files need to adopt the sheet number-sheet name naming convention, and DWG setup should use our “AEC-Export” configuration.
• The routine has to run on Revit 2022 and 2023 without modification.
Deliverables
1. Compiled .addin and .dll files ready to drop into the Addins folder.
2. Full, well-commented C# source code.
3. A short markdown guide that walks me through installation and explains how to change export settings if standards evolve.
Acceptance criteria
• I trigger the command, select sheets, and receive correctly named PDFs, DWGs, and DWFs in their respective sub-folders—all in one pass, no manual tweaking.
• No orphaned transactions or unhandled exceptions appear in the Revit journal.
If you have shipped similar Revit export or automation tools before, let me know; screenshots or a short demo video will speed up hiring.
