See what your options for parameters to set are with an Element.Parameters node. ---

I don’t think there is API for accessing that functionality. You can certainly create a new callout that references another view. There is a static constructor on `SectionView` class that allows you to do that, but these callouts once created don’t offer any API that would allow you to change the view that they are referencing. At least I couldn’t find anything. Maybe one possible way to go about this, would be to delete the existing callout, and just create a new one that references the view that you want to reference. ---

@Konrad_K_Sobon, Looks like you can do it with a Utility class ChangeReferencedView() [https://www.revitapidocs.com/2016/e62f67ee-ee95-8ffb-7896-22cce7280066.htm](https://www.revitapidocs.com/2016/e62f67ee-ee95-8ffb-7896-22cce7280066.htm) ---

Great find @SeanP! Now that we know there is indeed API for that, we can do so with a few new nodes that I added to [archi-lab.net](http://archi-lab.net): ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/9/6/965ded3dad70799b5ffc6dad96987c186c872a62.png) So in the image above I am selecting the view that has the callouts. In this case its Level 1: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/4/6/46b60cb26b0a4c7c352bad12e5ec932ffad41518.png) Then we are changing both of these callouts to reference the same view: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/3/9/39cb73832ec307d0c5173d9c41c536c7cc23c4e3.png) Cheers! ---
