Installation & Activation

Install the add-in and verify Autotag is ready to use.

Last updated: 2026-09-14

Autotag installs like any other Revit add-in. The installer writes to your Revit add-in folder; after installation, you'll see a Bimrock tab in the ribbon.

Also available on the Autodesk App Store
If you prefer installing through the Autodesk ecosystem, Autotag is published on the Autodesk App Store.

Requirements

  • Revit 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, or 2027
  • Windows 10/11 (64-bit)
  • Internet connection for license activation

Installation

  1. Download the installer from bimrock.ai. Click Start Free Trial
  2. Run the installer and select which Revit versions to install for
  3. Restart Revit if it was open - the Bimrock tab appears after launch

Activation

In the Bimrock tab, click Account and sign in with your Autodesk account. Your 60-day free trial starts automatically; if your company holds a subscription, your license activates on sign-in. If Autotag does not activate, ask your subscription admin to confirm a seat is assigned to you: Autotag seats are floating, so they can be moved between people.

License Scope
Your license is tied to your account, not a specific machine. Sign in on any workstation to activate Autotag. If you switch machines, simply sign in again - your previous session will be released automatically.

Verifying Installation

After installation, confirm these items:

  • Bimrock tab visible in the ribbon
  • Profiles, Tagging, and Arrange panels present
  • Active Profile dropdown shows a Bimrock default profile (HVAC or Plumbing)
  • Account button shows your signed-in status

Updates

Autotag checks for updates automatically. When available, a notification appears in the Bimrock ribbon. Click to download and install; restart Revit to complete the update.

Troubleshooting

Bimrock tab not appearing

Check Revit's Add-Ins tab for loading errors. If Autotag failed to load, ensure you restarted Revit after installation and installed for the correct Revit version. Re-running the installer usually resolves this.

Sign-in issues

Make sure you can sign in to your Autodesk account. If you recently changed your Autodesk password, use the new one. License validation needs an internet connection. If sign-in still fails, contact support@bimrock.ai.
