Link models
Models are linked by name and load at their latest published version.
A model is linked by its name, without a file path

Steps
- 1
Open the host model in Revit
A link is made in the host model, so it has to be open in Revit on this computer.
- 2
Choose Insert ▸ Link Syncture
Beside Link Revit. Syncture's window opens in the host model's folder.
- 3
Choose the model
Find it by its name and press Link. The host model itself, and what it links already, cannot be chosen.
- 4
Choose where it goes and what loads
Origin to origin is chosen for models published together. Then tick the worksets to load, and press Link.
Good to know
A link arrives at its latest published version. After colleagues publish, Refresh all brings every link up to date.
Syncture records a new link when the host model is next synced. Until then its row says Not published yet.
Linked into lists every model that links this one.
