ForceImport Property


IFCImport Options Force Import Property

Force the IFC file to be imported regardless of an existing corresponding Revit file.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.IFC
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)
Syntax
public bool ForceImport { get; set; }

Property Value

Boolean
Remarks
If this value is true (default), we will perform the import even if the existing corresponding Revit file is up-to-date. If this value is false, then we will re-use an existing RVT file if it is up-to-date. The intention is for ForceImport to be false during host file open while reloading links, and true during link reload via the Manage Links API.
