Install and Enable Revit Vault Server Integration

The Autodesk Revit Vault Server Integration allows Vault to deeply index Revit family files, including parameters and objects, so that you can search Revit family files with the Revit Vault Add-in.

Once you download and install the Autodesk Revit Vault Server Integration package, the Revit Indexing feature must be enabled in the Autodesk Data Management Server Console before you can use Revit Family Search.

Important: By default, the Revit Indexing Service is not enabled as an option until you download and install the Revit Vault Server Integration package. You can obtain the Revit Vault Server Integration package from www.autodesk.com/Vault_Plug-ins .
