BIM Orchestrator ​

Starts a workflow when a user sends a chat message from the BIM model viewer in Mesh.

Purpose ​

Use this trigger as the entry point for workflows that respond to natural language commands issued against a 3D model in the Mesh viewer. When a user types a message in the model chat interface the engine fires this trigger, passing the message text and the ID of the record being viewed. This enables automations such as dynamically filtering model elements, retrieving BIM property data in response to a question, or routing a model-specific request to an AI task for interpretation.

Inputs ​

This trigger has no configurable inputs.

Test Inputs ​

When running a workflow in debug mode from the automation designer the following fields are available to simulate a model chat event:

FieldTypeRequiredDescription
Mesh Record IdTextNoThe ID of the Mesh record that the chat message was sent against.
Chat InputMulti-line TextNoThe message text to use as the simulated chat input.

Outputs ​

NameDescription
Input TextThe message text sent by the user in the model viewer chat.
RecordIdThe Mesh record ID of the BIM model that was open when the message was sent.
