“Just for clarification, the settings of the NWC Export and the Glue plug-in are independent. While looking for a possible solution in the BIM 360 Glue forum I discovered that this is a known issue for Autodesk. You can get the links to show if you “Glue” it with the DWF file format in all there versions (2014, 2015, 2016). I tested this in 2014, 2015, and 2016 and if would not work in any of them.

I did some testing and found that like my client said you cannot upload a Revit file with links to Glue using “Glue” in the BIM 360 Revit Add-in using a NWC format and have the links visible. However after exporting to Glue, none of the links have been exported. They had set their Navisworks Exporter 2014 to convert linked files. It was a Revit 2014 model from a 3D view with Revit 2 links loaded. I had a client point out this issue to me, what they had tried to do was to export a Revit file to BIM 360 Glue, using the NWC option in the “Glue” feature in the BIM 360 Revit Add-in. This is a re-post of a Blog I did for work, which is posted on the IMAGINiT Building Solutions Blog here.
