Hi:

I am building shelving units in Revit and wanted to put recessed can lighting in the top of each one.  How do you do this? Which family file would I need to use?

I built a shelving unit in the Lighting Fixture file, but when I tried to put in any lighting, it didn't work. What do I need to do?

I'd appreciate any answers!

Thanks!

Go to your library and check your "lighting fixtures" folder, select one BUT you can't use "Ceilings or Wall" based families because you didn't created those shelvings with walls or ceilings right?

You need a face based light fixture.
