Opening .SMXX files in REVIT

Anonymous — Tue, 21 May 2019 15:53:21 GMT

Hello All,

I am using REVIT 2020 and ROBOT 2020, and I need to open an smxx file that was exported from ROBOT 2020 in REVIT. Autodesk says this can be done as shown below from their website:

So I want to open the file in REVIT, but smxx is not recognized. I found another forum post that said I just needed to download another plug-in to do this, but the link was broken or out of date. Any tips?

Thanks!

Jonathan,

Is there an update to this post? I am running Robot 2022 and Revit 2023. When I click on Analyze in Revit, I do not see the Robot Structural Analysis tab at all.
