It also looks as though Autodesk may be moving away from the Autodesk App Store to Autodesk Account for subscription add-ins, with the 2017 versions of Batch Print, DBLink, Model Review, Space Naming Utility, eTransmit,a nd more migrating to Autodesk Account.
Speaking of Autodesk Account, Luke Johnson posted handy instructions for downloading subscription enhancements on his What Revit Wants blog. Please note though, as relates to the release year of Revit, that it's not quite as cut and dry as Johnson indicates – our advice is to mix and match his suggestions. Read the article here.

In Extensions for Autodesk Revit 2017 I can't see a toll "Content generator". This very useful tool is in other enhancement now? I hope that Autodesk hasn't deleted it.
The shared/parameter tool is missing in Revit Extensions 2017. Has this been moved somewhere else? Or did they just get rid of it?
Was the parameter tool previously located in Revit Extensions moved to a different location? or has it been deleted?
