At the moment, we could use Dynamo BIM to push data to Excel and link Excel to Power BI. Ideally, we could connect Power BI directly to Revit via API and create live dashboard. Is there any plan to use Power BI for Autodesk products?

There is one more solution that you can use to export Revit data to Excel file. It is free plugin for Revit called SheetLink from DiRoots.
You can find it on following link:
https://diroots.com/plugins/sheetlink-revit-to-excel/

All parameters and values can be exported in Excel file in organized manner. Hope this helps. ;)

Nice read! Always a pleasure reading! Thank you for sharing!
Anyway, anyone heard of the project Whistler Grand in D05 in Singapore? I heard its a pretty good project with huge potential upside. Anyone else interested? Check this out! 🇸🇬

The autodesk Revit DB Link does this. I think its what you're looking for.

This is a great wish/idea that many Revit users will like. Maybe Microsoft and Autodesk can work together to manage data?
