Hi there,  
My name is Rod,

I would like to request for your collaboration to come up with the solution.

I have an alignment that I created in Civil 3D.  
I would like to bring it in Revit to work with some component. Using that Alignment as a reference path.

How can I create the exact alignment from Civil 3D data to Revit. Including its elevation.

It is possible to use the Generic Adaptive. But I would like to know from brilliant minds herein on how we can approach this in a awesome way.

Cheers,  
Rod

Hi @Rod.D.Lecetivo,

Have you taken a look at the CivilConnection package for Revit?

Hi, @zachri.jensen

I looked into it. is there a way you can guide me on how to make one out of the civilconnection.

I very much appreciate your kindness.

Take a look at the documentation here and see if it helps.

I was overwhelmed with the idea and information. Need to catch up.  
I found a solution.  
[Connecting Civil 3D to Revit](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/connecting-civil-3d-to-revit/72743).
