Error import ifc in Power bi

Hello everyone,
I’m trying to import IFC (MEP) files generated with revit into power bi. I can always import them without problems, but in this case (and with others similar to this) I can’t.
the files are uploaded correctly in the project portal it speckle, but when I try to connect them via link to power bi it generates this error. I don’t know how to solve it, unfortunately I can’t request a new export in ifc.

Thanks to anyone who can help me.

IFC model

The error says that the speckle_type property is missing on some elements, I believe this is a parsing issue of the IFC.
I think the work @adamhathcock and @Christopher_Diggins have done on the new parser should solve this, over to Adam to share an ETA.

This could be fixed with the next-gen IFC parsing that’s due probably in Feb.

The speckle_type would be the IFC type. I would be curious to see an example IFC that cannot be imported.

Hi, i posted the IFC upload link to Speckle in the first post, do you want the original IFC? I can PM it to you.

That would be useful to determine if this is still an issue or not. Thanks.
