Synopsis:The goal of this session is not to make you a programmer. The goal is to give you some information,
resources, and tips to allow you to use an API to get a little extra data, functionality, or interoperability
out of your BIM tools and workflows. -Learning Objectives:1. What is an Application Programming Interface (API) anyway?
2. Why it?s okay to not be a computer scientist and dabble in APIs.
3. Ways to make the Revit API a little more user friendly.
4How using Postman can make access API?s easier and add in some custom scripting to boot. Body:In today’s rapidly evolving BIM industry, interoperability is no longer a nice to have, but a real project
need. That is why the use of APIs has grown and why an understanding of them, even a little, can be
a real advantage. This session is NOT for API Pros, but for those that have heard about APIs and wonder
how a non-programmer could make use of them.
In this session, we will learn what an Application Programming Interface really is and how even a noncoder
can make use of them. We will learn about resources and tools to help shed some light on the
good, the bad, the ugly and the downright weird things about the Revit API. We will also learn about
using tools like Postman to make accessing APIs easier. And how using Postman can allow for some
custom scripting to automate some boring tasks like deleting PDFs or adding users to a project.
This session will provide info, resources & tips about using an API to get extra data, functionality, or
interoperability out of your BIM workflows.

Synopsis:

This panel discussion will look at how open-source software and tools can be used within the AEC industry. We will do this by asking our panelists about the pros and cons of open source, along with its unique use cases.

Synopsis:

This session will take a deep dive into what exactly the BIM Collaboration Format (BCF), the good and the bad. We will explore some of the interoperability and collaboration-based workflows that make use of BCFs in the AECO Industry.

Synopsis:

This class is targeted to anyone interested in what’s new in add-ins, apps, or 3rd party additions to Revit and other software and platforms that are part of an AECO workflow.

Synopsis:

There’s a big world outside of Revit and believe it or not you can still use Dynamo out there! So come along as we explore some of the many things you can do using Dynamo sans Revit.

Synopsis:

Join a group of Dynamo experts to build and play Monopoly in Revit. The class is packed with a
variety of examples that mirror common Dynamo and Revit workflow. With tips and tricks
peppered throughout, everyone is bound to learn something new and have some fun.
