I want to share here posts from my blog about using Python nodes in Dynamo. This could have been achieved with a Revit API code, but it would have been less funny…

Thanks again to Andreas and Michael for the help provided.

Main goal:

get links from the active project and collect information from the linked elements to be used in the project. Custom nodes have been published as packages, and the Dynamo build is 0.6.3.38253.

Success:

get the linked documents and instances

get families instances locations and create some in the host project at the exact same location

get parameters values and push them in the host project, even for sheets
