Pre-Installed Autodesk Sample Files
Autodesk provides several Sample Files as part of the Generative Design for Revit installation.
When you install Generative Design for Revit on your personal computer, they are automatically installed to a folder at this location:
C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\AECGD\Revit\Samples 2024
or
C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\AECGD\Revit\Samples 2025
If you're working on a shared cluster computer, and you do not find these files on the computer that you're working on, you should:
- Create a folder named "AEC Generative Design" within your Documents folder
- Then download these files from our shared Google Drive folder, and copy them into your AEC Generative Design folder:
When you open the Create Study dialog:
- Choose the folder Autodesk Samples to view these samples.
