If you use dRofus to plan finishes (as described in the dRofus user guide chapter 14) you can link and synchronize your planed finishes items with the room object in Revit or link finishes to Revit materials.

Link and synchronize finishes as room parameters

In dRofus, the finishes you plan will be directly attached to the rooms in the database. Once you have done the planning you can synchronize the finishes list to a room parameter in Revit for information and tagging of rooms.

...

Note that if there are more than one finish item for one category they will be synchronized to the same parameter in Revit comma separated.

Link and synchronize finishes and Revit Materials

Linking an finishes item to materials works the same way as for other items explained in Linking Family Symbols to items in dRofus /wiki/spaces/WA/pages/1318359520. You can apply both filters on category or responsibility groups to make the linking process easier.

Below you can see an example of a material configuration. This configuration suggests a workflow where identity data are managed in dRofus and pushed to Revit while areas of the material are pushed from Revit to dRofus. However, the attribute configuration supports bi-directional synk so projects are free to set up a workflow where data are managed in Revit and synced to dRofus;

Example of workflow for Revit Materials and finishes

Let's say we want dRofus to manage the data of the Materials. We can start to input some data in dRofus for a given material. In this case a paint material;
