Great Bro it's really work in MEP services, with the help of same logic i was put sprinkler data into Revit ... Thanks a Tone

[danielarmenta]

Excellent explanation thank you so much

[corto]

Thank you very much for your great tutorial
It will help me a lot to inform my families
On the Web there are many tutorials for exchanges between Excel and Revit schedules, but very few on family information from Excel
Again a big thank you

[lorenavillafanaestarron]

Excellent video! It helped me a lot, it is clearly explained and you gave me a great idea on how to integrate an index in future scripts, thank you very much.

Thanks for your video, it is what I've always been looking for.

HI. Very informative. i am a beginner in Dynamo. your explanation is too clear and great video. i have a excel data schedule want to import into Revit. could you upload a short video of that. pls.

[ezarun]

Good job, explaining things patiently

[sanhankiit]

Fantastic video. Thanks a lot. I have a question, for Fabrication ductwork is it possible to do the same script like what you did? does is number the ductwork in order like from 1 to 10 or like so?

[gregoirearsenault]

This is exactly what I was looking to do. The only thing, I have imported an .ifc in Revit and I can’t find the family type since they are all Direct Shapes (Step 3). I there any was I can get the list of the elements working with direct shapes or an alternative of family types?

[sinashojae]

thank you for your video, it was so useful, Please provide a video on how to create all the families of the building profile (steel) table and its parameters, thank you very much.

Hej Stefan
Hvad hvis du har flere af samme slag, altså f.eks 10 af Mark a 20 af Mark b, vil de så alle få de rigtige udfyldninger af Type og Text ? Jeg sidder og gør samme ting blot med føringsveje, hvor jeg vil have alle føringsveje med samme value i en parameter til at få udfyldt nogle andre parametre fra et excel ark det funker ikke rigtigt

[julbarr]

Nice tutorial! Very useful to me, thanks man!

[shahrukhkhowaja]

I want to create instant shared parametres in revit by linking excel sheet .. Can you tell me how??

[emmanilemah]

Hello and thanks for this tuto.. though I can't make it run :( : when I link an "IntegerSlider" to the "ListGetItemAtIndex" Dynamo crashes ! I'd have loved to show you my script but we can't insert images :( If by any chance you have a moment...
Thanks anyway

[Ethanliuyisong]

nice video, can you do one to show how to change type parameter ' Coarse Scale Fill Color' to RGB 128 -128-128 for all walls with 'Basic' in Family name? thanks

What if I have the same mark number on multiple instances of that family? How can I get it to run on lets say 10 doors with mark number "a"

[AllienXapado]

Hi Stefan. You showed 5 values in excel and you have 5 elements in revit. But If we have 5 elements in revit, but 10 elements in excel . How we could match by mark for take its line value. "like a procv between sheets" How we could do that please?

[RasmusBroennum]

Hi Stefan. Do you know if it is possible, yet, to import (instance) data into groups? In housing projects we have to use groups, but in the past there has been limitations to data import from Excel to elements in groups.

How did you get the Data.ImportExcel node?
