Hi there,

I’m trying to figure out if the above subject would be possible to do in Dynamo. But after looking into it, I’ve been struggling to find a node that can change/swap the current site.

It’s these sites I would like to be able to swap using dynamo, and then swap back again after an IFC export:

I hope someone knows a nice package that can help me out with this, or even better if some of you Python magicians can help me out with a custom node.

Thanks a lot in advance,

Hi @Jens_Kaarsholm did you find any solution on this

Hi I had a script with similar workflow, it ask the user to choose the Shared site to export after opening a detached copy of the model so the actuall model stays unchanged, hope the swapping site part can help you build your script. Good luck…:slight_smile:

Thanks @saju_autodesk for sharing
I was looking to develop for NWC.

I am looking to export NWC for multiple project locations of same file.
Think so will have to rely on python for iterating through all locations.
