📝 Video Summary:

Revit API can be easy.
And I want to show you a few examples!
But most importantly, you can try them out yourself!

Sometimes we can create new tools with just a few lines of code, and it can always be improved along the way

You will see Examples to:
- Select Untagged Doors in the Active View
- Select Warning Elements + Display Ids
- Pick and Sum Rooms
- Create Wall Section
- Override Elements by Group
- Bulk Rename Selected Views
- Select all In-Place Elements in View
- Unhide All Elements

Some examples can take as little as 7 lines of code. The goal here is to show you that Revit API is not a rocket science, and anyone with very little python can give it a try! And slowly step by step you will be able to make even more complex tool!
