dRofus AEC Data Sync

The dRofus AEC Data Sync is an AEC Data Model Integration for Autodesk® Revit® via Autodesk Construction Cloud®

Automate BIM data synchronization between Revit and dRofus through Autodesk Construction Cloud® (ACC) and the AEC Data Model. This integration reduces manual updates, maintains consistent design data across platforms during design, and enables process automation.

Instead of opening Revit and using the dRofus desktop plugin to manually push model data to dRofus, simply publish the design model to ACC and use this integration to push the data from Revit into dRofus. Set-up and configuration are done via dRofus Web; attribute configurations defined in Revit are available to use with the integration. You will receive an email with a log when the sync is complete. 

Key Features

• Multiple synchronization methods for design-phase flexibility

• Automatic updates triggered by published Cloud Workshared Revit models

• Permission-based access control with OAuth authentication

• Detailed sync logs are delivered via email.

Technical Setup

• Revit 2025 with ACC-hosted models

• Appropriate user permissions in ACC and dRofus

To get started, first have an ACC admin install the integration. Next, a dRofus project should be configured with an attribute configuration specific to the ACC sync process.
This must be done in Revit Create New or Edit Revit Attribute Configuration.

Ensure your dRofus project admin has defined the minimum dRofus permissions. You need Full Room and Full Model Server rights. 

Using Revit 2025, publish a workset-enabled project to an ACC project. 

1. Login to your dRofus project via dRofus web and navigate to the Model settings. 

2. Select the Sync with Revit tab and Sign in with your Autodesk account.

3. When asked to authorize application data, select Allow.

4. Select the Hub and Project to use.

Note that published files are shown under Models in the project. If your design files are not listed, check your permissions in the ACC project or have an admin check your access. What you can view in ACC will match what we provide access to in our integration. 

1. Select the configuration defined earlier.

2. Select Sync Rooms to update dRofus. 

An email will be sent when the sync is completed. 

Options:

Turning on Add New will create new rooms in dRofus. 

Turning on Delete Unmatched will remove rooms in dRofus that were removed between published updates. (You will need dRofus admin rights to delete rooms)

Turning on Automatically sync rooms on model publish will set the settings defined earlier as read-only, and a sync will trigger when new models are published.
