Despite the inconsistent naming, this is actually the IFC <code>GlobalId</code>. This property can now be overridden, copied, or searched for. If the text is deleted, it will be rewritten on your next export. However, it will always rewrite the original <code>GlobalId</code>, as it is predetermined inside Revit. There is no way to regenerate a fresh ID for an existing Revit object. |
