Where to Find It
Open Pirros
In the left sidebar, go to Management and select the Import / Export tab
From here, you can export your library as an Excel file and re-upload the edited spreadsheet.
What Gets Exported
Export All Details/Families
When you export from Import / Export, Pirros exports everything in your database (all details or all families in your library) into an Excel file.
The exported spreadsheet includes key fields like:
Pirros ID
Detail View Name
Title on Sheet
Detail Number
Sheet Name
Additional detail metadata
Family Name
Family Revit Category
Additional Family metadata
Tip: Even though the export includes everything, you can still use Excel to filter down to only what you need, like Typical Details, before making edits.
What You Can Update via Import (Bulk Upload)
After you export, you can edit the spreadsheet and import it back into Pirros to update certain fields in bulk. The key supported bulk edits are:
1) Tags (Most Common Use)
Updating tags across many details/families at once, especially for organizing Typical Content.
Workflow:
Decide whether you want to export All Details or All Families into an Excel file
Open the Excel file to view all the exported content
Filter to the details or families you want to update and update the tag column(s) as needed
Save the file
Drag and drop / upload the file back into the Import area to apply the tag updates
2) Notes
You can also use the same export β edit β import workflow to adjust Notes on details in bulk.
This is helpful if your team uses Notes to track extra context (ex: internal guidance, source references, or reminders) without expanding your tag list.
