# Installing and Updating the Connector

In this page, we’ll cover how to install and update Revit Connector for Speckle.

# Prerequisites

To install the Revit connector, it’s assumed you have:

Speckle Account (you can get one for free🎉 at speckle.xyz (opens new window))
Manager for Speckle (download it from here (opens new window) and add your Speckle account.)

Once Manager is installed and your account is set, you can continue with the installation.

WARNING

💡 Before you begin the installation process, make sure that Revit is closed.

Open Manager for Speckle and click on the "Connectors" tab.
You should see a list of available connectors. Scroll down until you find the "Revit" connector or use the Search Bar to find it.
Click the "Install" button next to it.

That's it! You're all set to use the Speckle connector for Revit.

You will receive a notification in Manager for Speckle when updates for Revit connector is available.
Click on the Update button to install the latest version.

If you want to stay on the cutting edge of the Revit connector, then you can install pre-releases of it.

WARNING

Please keep in mind that these early versions are not intended for production work and may have some untested features.

To install pre-releases for the Revit connector, follow these steps:

If you can’t install Manager for whatever reason, manual installer of our Revit connector is also available.

Download the Revit connector installer from Speckle Releases page (opens new window).
Double-click the installer package you’ve downloaded.
You can either install it only for your user, or for all users. (Please note: Installing for all users requires Admin rights.)
Click Install.
After successful installation, click Close to exit.
