Notice: This user guide is based on the legacy connector.
We recommend using our new connectors instead, as they are easier to use and actively maintained. This legacy documentation may not be up to date.
Legacy Speckle supports versions:
Getting started
To begin, you’ll need to install this connector and add your Speckle account. Follow our instructions in Speckle Manager if you haven’t already.

Receiving data
Geometry from projects will be added to AutoCAD / Civil3D layers starting with a prefix with the following format:
Any layer information from the incoming project will be appended to the prefix with the standard AutoCAD delimiter $. When receiving from applications (like Rhino) with nested layers, the incoming full layer path will replace any default delimiters with $.
