Automatic Save

Translated by moderator. See below the line for the original post.


Which dynamo node or package could I create a routine to save my revit file according to the user’s specified time?

Welcome. Unfortunately, this doesn’t seem like a task for Dynamo. A Dynamo graph must be executed each time the function is meant to run, which means there’s no “auto-running” a graph. Revit doesn’t have a background save either, so this would always end with an interruption in work. A better option might be to set the automatic sync reminder to prompt for save/sync on the specified time.

Hi @JULIOGUIMARAESPROJET As Everyone mentioned there is no auto-running, save and i totally agree with them.

In case u still need a workaround to keep the auto-save and run it automatically. I’ll suggest write a simple workflow for saving the revit file, keep dynamo open at back and use periodic as shown below by setting the time u want the graph to run .

P.S.:- It’s just a workaround in case u still want to go with it.
