The Autodesk Construction Cloud integration is available on Team and Enterprise plans. To enable it for your organisation,get a quoteor see New plans FAQ for plan details.
The Speckle integration must be enabled on your ACC Hub before you can sign in. If you don’t see the option to log in to Autodesk Construction Cloud in Speckle workspace settings, your IT administrator needs to add the integration in ACC first. See Enabling the integration on ACC (IT Admin) for the steps they follow.

Setup

These steps assume the Speckle integration has already been enabled on your organisation’s ACC Hub. If it hasn’t, your IT administrator must complete the steps in Enabling the integration on ACC (IT Admin) first.
1

Sign in to Autodesk Construction Cloud

  1. Select workspace settings from the workspace dropdown (top left).
    Workspace settings
  2. Select Log in next to Autodesk Construction Cloud.
    Login
  3. Sign in to your ACC account and select Allow from the authorization dialog.
    Authorize app
Your integration is now set up.
2

Sync your first model

  1. From your project in Speckle, select Add model > Sync from ACC.
    Add model
  2. Select the file you want to sync. Your hubs, projects, folders and files from ACC will be listed here.
    Select file
  3. Optionally, define the view to export. See View Selection below for details on how this affects what gets synced.
Confirm selection
  1. Select Create.
This connects your ACC file to your Speckle model. Changes in ACC sync automatically to Speckle.

Supported File Formats

The following file formats are currently supported for syncing from Autodesk Construction Cloud:
FormatExtensionStatus
Revit.rvt✅ Supported
IFC.ifc✅ Supported
Navisworks.nwc .nwd⚠️ Beta
Navisworks files (.nwc and .nwd) are supported for manual upload and ACC sync as a beta feature. Many Autodesk (and other) products can export Navisworks Cache files without requiring a Navisworks license, so you can upload those exports to Speckle.
While the Navisworks parser is in Beta if the file size is over 200MB, the sync may not always succeed. Treat Navisworks sync as a beta release and expect occasional failures, especially for very large files.
We’re planning to add support for additional formats like .dwg in future releases.
ACC sync and direct uploads convert models using Internal Origin and do not apply Revit Shared Coordinates. Models brought in via sync or upload are not placed in a coordinated space. For coordination workflows that rely on Shared Coordinates, use the Revit connector to publish and load models so coordinate modifications are preserved.

Enabling the integration on ACC (IT Admin)

If your organisation hasn’t enabled the Speckle integration on the ACC Hub yet, an IT administrator (or anyone with Account Admin access in ACC) must add it first. After that, users can sign in from Speckle workspace settings and sync projects as described in Setup above.
If Custom Integrations is not visible in the Account Admin panel, the account may not have the required role. Contact your Autodesk administrator.

Add a custom integration to ACC

  1. Go to the ACC Account Admin page (or acc.autodesk.eu for the European region).
  2. In the Account Admin panel, select Custom Integrations.
  3. Select Add custom integrations.
  4. Enter the integration details (copy the Client ID exactly, with no extra spaces):
    • Client ID: 5Y2LzxsL3usaD1xAMyElBY8mcN6XKyfHfulZDV3up0jfhN5Y
    • Name: Speckle
    Add custom integration
  5. Select Next.
  6. On the permission warning, select Proceed Anyway.
    Permission warning
The warning comes from Autodesk, not Speckle. Autodesk does not offer granular permission controls for Custom Integrations, so the dialog cannot show the actual scope.Speckle requests only read-only scopes (account:read, user-profile:read, data:read, data:search, bucket:read, viewables:read, openid) to reach files and metadata for conversion. See Autodesk’s scope definitions for details.Speckle inherits each user’s existing ACC permissions. Users see only hubs, projects, and folders they already have access to. There is no elevation of access. Autodesk’s API enforces these boundaries.For extra control, create a dedicated ACC account with limited access to specific projects or folders and use it for Speckle syncs.
The Speckle integration is now enabled for your ACC account. Users can sign in from Speckle workspace settings and sync projects.

View Selection

When syncing a Revit file from ACC, you can optionally specify a view name to control which elements are included in the sync.

No view specified (default)

When you don’t specify a view name, all supported elements from the entire model are synced. This includes every element across all model. This is the recommended option when you want:
  • A complete representation of your model
  • Access to all elements for analytics and dashboards
  • Maximum data availability for downstream workflows

Specifying a view name

When you enter a specific view name, only elements visible in that view are synced. The view name must match exactly (case-sensitive) with a view in your Revit model. This is useful when you want to:
  • Sync only a portion of your model
  • Focus on specific areas or disciplines
  • Match the scope of a particular coordination view
  • Sync views that correspond to different design options
If the specified view name doesn’t exist in the model, the sync will fail. Make sure the view name matches exactly.
Yes. Speckle establishes a read-only connection with Autodesk Construction Cloud, which means we can sync and analyze your data but can’t modify the original files. This ensures data integrity and security.
Once you’ve created a sync model, it automatically syncs whenever a new version of the file is published to Autodesk Construction Cloud. You don’t need to manually trigger ongoing synchronization.
ACC sync converts models using Internal Origin and does not apply Revit Shared Coordinates. Synced models are not placed in a coordinated space. For coordination workflows that rely on Shared Coordinates, use the Revit connector to publish and load models so coordinate modifications are preserved.
Common causes include file access issues, authorization problems, or unsupported file formats. Check that:
  • The file is accessible
  • Your permissions are correct
  • The file is in .rvt, .ifc, .nwc, or .nwd format

The ACC integration provides direct integration with Autodesk Construction Cloud and enables automatic synchronization of construction data. Unlike other integrations that require manual file uploads or connectors, ACC syncs happen automatically when files are updated in the cloud.
Yes. Once synced, your Autodesk Construction Cloud models can be used with Speckle Intelligence for analytics, dashboard creation, and generating insights from your construction data.
