Paracore's Structured Output (Table)

The Analytics Tab serves as your BIM Data Inspection hub, allowing you to manipulate and audit Revit model data with ease.

1. Inspection First​

The primary role of the table is Inspection. Paracore can draw any Revit element property into a structured list for comparison.

  • Shorthand Magic: Using helpers like GetElements<T>().Table() makes element inspection instantaneous.
  • Multi-Element Context: Compare Level, Area, Phase, and Categories across thousands of elements at a glance.

2. Data Manipulation​

Sorting and filtering the table allows you to isolate specific datasets and see complex relationships—such as Rooms and their corresponding Areas—without leaving the inspection view.

3. Bidirectional Editing​

While inspection is the priority, the table also supports updating data back to Revit.

  • Single-Cell Updates: Correct specific parameters (like a Mark or Comment) directly in the grid.
  • Mass Edit via CSV: For massive changes, export the table to CSV, manipulate the data in Excel, and batch import the updates back into Revit.

4. Performance​

The table is powered by a high-performance Virtualized Engine, capable of managing audit lists exceeding 10,000 rows with zero UI lag.
