Exclude Uploading Revit Linked Files to Vault Server

You can exclude uploading of Revit linked files to the vault server by manually adding a property called "ExcludeLinkedFiles" and setting this property to True/False in the ApplicationPreferences.xml file.

To configure this setting:
  1. Close any Revit application.
  2. Open ApplicationPreferences.xml file in a text editor. (Typically found at "<C:\Users(username)\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Revit 20xx Vault Addin>")
  3. Add the following line under the Category "ApplicationOptions" with the desired value (True/False).
    • <Category ID="ApplicationOptions">
    • <Property Name="ExcludeLinkedFiles" Value="True" />
    • </Category>
  4. Relaunch the Revit application.
