Hi,

I’m very new to Dynamo and requesting some help, a project for steel detailing that is set up for collaboration in BIM 360 (we are not hosting it) will have a new IFC file sent to us weekly, we are required to do the following:

insert tab - link IFC  
the file path and names wont be changed (there are 3 different buildings=3 IFC files)  
selecting the IFC links  
in the contextual tab - Bind Link  
Dialog Box- Bind Link Options - include - none selected (not vital)  
Lastly we get a warning for us to remove the link which we want to select  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/1/a/1acd7cecbd5af67f1e9551032ef03694f765601f.png)

is there a way for me to at least link the 3 IFC? Bind it with a keyboard shortcut (would i have to select one at a time)?

Please let me know if there is anything I can do.

Thanks in advance

Alejandra Contreras

Hi @acontreras,

There is a _Link IFC_ node in _Genius Loci_ package that allows you to link IFC files in Revit.  
I’m not sure it fits perfectly your workflow.

We can´t do reference .dxf in BIM 360. My company is in contact with Autodesk. Still now it´s complicated and there is no solution.  
Hope for a solution soon 🙂

DXF and IFC are two very different things. I believe the post above by @Alban_de_Chasteigner should work in this case.
