BIM Q&A: Should You Use Linked or Imported CAD Files in Revit?

BIM Q&A | Should You Use Linked CAD or Import CAD in Revit?

In Revit, linking CAD files means that any changes made to the original CAD files will automatically update within Revit, ensuring synchronization between both. On the other hand, importing CAD files creates a static copy inside Revit, so changes to the original CAD will not affect the imported version. The choice between linking and importing depends on your specific project requirements and workflow preferences.
