Navisworks Connector (⚒️alpha)

We're stoked to add Navisworks to the Speckle family allowing you to share and work with even more of your AEC data, and it's available in alpha 🎉!

Contents

This send-only connector is developed and supported in-house and is available for installation through the Manager.

The connector supports basic 3D geometry node conversions from Navisworks Manage versions 2020-23, with additional conversions on the immediate roadmap: Unit support, full property translation, and correct Y-Z orientation.

Also, on the feature support agenda:

  • Line-work
  • Origin translation
  • Custom overrides support (colour, transparency, location)
  • Clash-reports
  • Comments
  • Views

We have many ideas for further supporting your AEC workflows. To focus our efforts, we're extremely keen to hear how you'd like to use your Navisworks data within your Speckle portfolio. The best place to let us know is on the Community forum. Please report any bugs and feedback to help make this connector more robust.

Documentation, support tables, and getting-started tutorials are in the works; check back soon!

Already familiar with Speckle? Install the Navisworks connector directly from the Manager!

Note: Check out the repo for constant development and updates; the codebase of an alpha connector is by its nature in flux; code-fix contributions may be premature.
