Saving Revit file back to a previous version

Hello All,

Is it possible to save a Revit file created in 2017 version to save back or open in Revit 2015 or 2016?
Some of my customer still uses lower versions and they are not able to use the files created in 2017 version.

Please let me know if there is any possibility to achieve this.

Thanks in advance

No you cannot save to lower version.

Many threads on this already

Revit has never been able to do this

you would have to export out to a neutral format like sat and import into 2015 or 2016

Yes you can export but you may lost lots of information during transition and at the end its useless.
