it's me again mate. I make sure that i will watch one video of you everyday. Today I came across this topic and it's a really good timing because I will have the same task to transfer some parameter from other consultants. Can't wait to test it out! Thank you very much for this!

Hi Erik, congratulations for your work! i'm studying automated code compliance checking in the master degree, but I'm still in the conceptual part. To try the experimental part do you think Revit API+Python it is a possibility to verify BIM models or should I focus in Dynamo? Thanks a lot.

Hi Erik, I was wondering if you could advise me on whether it is possible to upgrade to the new version of Revit without affecting my access to PyRevit. If there are any potential issues or risks involved, I would appreciate it if you could let me know as well. thanks
