Hi,

As I understand your question you are looking for something like this.
To get the owner of the schedule and than duplicate that view.

import clr
import sys
clr.AddReference("RevitServices")
import RevitServices
from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager 

clr.AddReference("RevitAPI")
clr.AddReference("RevitAPIUI")

import Autodesk 
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
from Autodesk.Revit.UI import *

doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
# Place your code below this line
if(isinstance(IN[0],list)):
	schedules = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
else:
	schedules = [UnwrapElement(IN[0])]
ids = []
assemblies = []
assemlby_schedules = []
for schedule in schedules:
	owner_assembly_id = schedule.AssociatedAssemblyInstanceId
	if(str(owner_assembly_id) != "-1"):
		assemblies.append(doc.GetElement(owner_assembly_id))
		ids.append(owner_assembly_id)
		assemlby_schedules.append(schedule)
# Assign your output to the OUT variable.
OUT = assemblies, ids, assemlby_schedules

Hope it helps.

Thank you @Josip.Komadina for helping me. As you given this above script I tried in my model. But it gives me all list of assembly instance .I am not able to identify which assembly instance shedule view is it. I am not able to sort views according to assembly.
This is my out put snip

It would be beneficial if you provide solution as per Below mentioned Screenshot.

No problem.

Than we just put assemblies as the input and run through all the views and schedules.

This should do the trick now.
Edit : Code works but needs cleanup

Thank You so much @Josip.Komadina as you provided python script it works very smoothly I can get proper views for that. Is it possible to to get list of respective assembly sheets list? If possible please share python script…

That was a fast solution,

This should be the cleaner one with views, schedules and sheets.
