Getting Started

Welcome to Paracore! This guide will help you get up and running in minutes, from initial installation to running your first high-performance Revit automation.

🚀 The Path to Success​

  1. Installation & Setup: Set up the Addin, activate the server, and connect the Desktop app.
  2. Your First Script: Execute a sample automation to verify your setup.
  3. Downloads: Get the latest installers.

🛠️ Prerequisites​

Before you begin, ensure you have a compatible environment:

  • Autodesk Revit: Version 2025 or later.
  • Windows 10/11: 64-bit version.
