I’ve searched HIGH & low for the simple solution to just add all my parameters in my SP file to a “Container File” in one go. That way I can just insert Families/Schedules & it’ll have the “NEW” SP Name, but same GUID. I’m wanting to tidy up my SP’s in preparation for 2020. Am I going the the right direction with some of these nodes??? ![Load%20All%20SP%20from%20TXT%20or%20Excel%20File%20to%20RVT](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/b/7/b7392761f196bec567cdf583d2b0b46f3a1b5de8.png) I’m still trying to understand these posts: > [@Add Shared Parameter to Project](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/add-shared-parameter-to-project/8100/16): > > Original Topic About the original topic of the discussion.

Below is a schematic version of the workflow i have in mind. I like the “Document.BackgroundOpen” and “Document.Close” nodes of @john_pierson (Rhythm) very much. They are perfect for batch upgrade family files. But with this extra node (Third step), i could use them for a lot of DynamoPlayer scripts.

The workaround I’ve found is to have a template project which contains view filters using each of the shared parameters you’d like to use. e.g.: CustomFilter1 : Filter By : SharedParam1 CustomFilter2 : Filter By : SharedParam2 CustomFilter3 : Filter By : SharedParam3 Then transfer only the filters using Transfer Project Standards: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/1/1/11efeb42bebd29b99bc3d424ab28f4728b869f01.png) This will force Revit to import your shared parameters to all of the categories to which the filters are applied. Or is this not what you’re trying to do? ---

I see. That would mean I need to automate creating 200 plus Filters for 200 plus SP’s 😛 ---

@cftrevizo, can you provide any information on what you decided to do with this task? ---

From studying the links I listed I utilize parts of the graphs referenced to just load all my SPs, then manually removed them all (maybe that can be the new challenge), even if some SPs only lived in families. That way the new names/format are remembered by the RTE when schedules/tags are created. I’ll dig up the graph I used & post it.
