Endra

If you’re looking to streamline your MEP device placements in Autodesk Revit, look no further than the Endra plugin. This handy add-in connects directly to the Endra platform, allowing you to import MEP device placements with ease. In this review, we’ll take a closer look at how Endra works and why it’s a must-have tool for Revit users.

How Endra Works

Endra seamlessly integrates with your Revit project, importing MEP device placements from the Endra platform. To get started, you’ll need an active Endra account and an active project to import MEP placements. Once you have everything set up, simply select the Endra project you want to import from, and the add-in will pull data from the latest snapshot.

During the import process, you have the option to map the imported units to your existing Revit family types. This customization allows you to match Endra unit types to Revit family types, ensuring a smooth transition of data into your Revit model. You can even save mapping profiles for future use, making it easy to replicate import settings across projects.

Once you’ve mapped your units, it’s time to import them into your Revit model. Endra will automatically snap units to faces within Revit, saving you time and ensuring accurate placement. Additionally, Endra offers a convenient IFC export option that allows you to export an IFC file using a configuration that works best with the platform.

Requirements and Support

Before using the Endra plugin, make sure you have a valid Endra account with access to the relevant projects. Internet connectivity is also required during sign-in and import to ensure a seamless experience. If you encounter any issues or need help setting up mapping profiles, Endra Support is readily available at support@endra.ai.
