Forma Tools in Revit

As a Forma Connected Client, Revit allows you to use Forma tools with your current model without leaving Revit — no more sending files back and forth between applications.

The initial workflows focus on connected experiences between Revit and Forma tools:

  • See the same data across applications without duplicating work or being required to import or export files.
  • Enrich Revit models with real-world contextual data to make informed decisions.
  • Perform Forma sustainability analyses.
  • Quickly transition between Forma Site Design and Revit to design in any environment.
Note: As a Forma Connected Client, Revit offers Forma capabilities that are part of a technology preview (tech preview), which means that it's new and continuously improving. Learn more.
Topics in this section
  • Access Forma Tools
    To use Forma tools in Revit, take steps to prepare your model.
  • Forma Scenarios
    Instead of managing models in isolated software applications or importing and exporting files, you can reference and coordinate models within a scenario, regardless of where you authored them.
  • Forma Geolocation
    To use a Forma workflow in Revit, the model must be connected to a scenario and assigned a geographic location.
  • Forma Contextual Data
    When working on a Forma project, you can quickly acquire site data, such as terrain, to provide context for your model in all phases of design.
  • Forma Analyses
    When the model is connected to a scenario and references contextual data and other models, Forma analyses provide the insights you need for informed decision-making.
