Hi all,

does anyone know if there is a way to get the actual path of a BIM 360 File?  
I want to use a node to link several files from the BIM 360 Cloud, but apparently the path doesn’t work.  
I’m using something like :  
“BIM 360://working\_folder/file.rvt”

Use the CentralPath node from the Springs Package.

Thanks Sean,  
but that node returns the same BIM 360 path (“BIM 360://working\_folder/file.rvt”) that doesn’t work inside Dynamo

You need to go through the BIM 360 folder in file explorer that is added via the desktop connector.
