Build an application interacting with third party applications and NavisWork

Anonymous — Sun, 06 Dec 2020 18:55:23 GMT

Hello,

We need to build an application able to interact both with a third party system/database and NavisWork and/Revit. The application will communicate with the third party system and according the values of the data being received from this system, the application must be able to trigger visual effects to the NavisWork/Revit model (change color, zoom in, etc). Is the NavisWork API the right "tool" to use? Does the API interact with the NavisWork model? Are the components of the model accessible through the classes of the API? Can I find a documentation of the API before installing the SDK?

In the beginning I tried to use BimSens and I managed to interact with the model through the <ID match> mechanism, but I think this cannot not help me to build what I really need.

Thank you!
