Aim : Links that Revit supports

Procedure :

Link CAD - It allows to link CAD file to create 3D using revit.

Link REVIT - It allows to link another revit module to the current module

Link IFC - It allows to link another IFC file as a reference where we have to perform additional Design work in Revit.

Link Topography - We can link existing topography to current module.
