I’m trying to close the worksets of linked models hosted on ACC using the Genius Loci node.
The node returns null but I believe my inputs are correct.
I opened the node to try the python script and got the following error.
What does line 41 and the code reading up to it look like? Note that list strucures may need reworking to make things work in the workspace environment vs the custom node environment.
Hi,
here a workaround (python)

I have all the worksets open:
The model link is coming from our ACC Consumed folder:
It’s not a nested model:
I updated the code in my previous post for a list at input
Thanks for your help, I’m getting a different error now.
Do I need to be an admin on the ACC hub to run this?

unfortunately I don’t have an ACC project with a configuration similar to yours in terms of access rights.
do you use packages for your linked models, or have you directly linked the central cloud models of other professions ?
All the models are consumed, then linked in from the consumed folder.
I will try the script on a model that I collaborated to ACC to see if there’s a difference.

It works for a model that I collaborated (highlighted in green), but doesn’t for the models that were consumed.
I don’t know why the models would behave like this since the edit permission is be the same across the folder on ACC. I can double check that there’s not different permissions by default on the consumed folder, but it should inherit the parent folder permissions.
Likely the path is inconsistent for the model types. What are you seeing for those values?
Hi @RDM
can you try this version ?

Nice, this worked perfectly.
It does give you a popup warning if the script is run on a model that already has closed worksets but that’s fine.
While I can set up an index slider and run it model by model, is there an easy way to for this to work on multiple models?
Bird tools has an app called Dynamo multi player which will do the trick.
Sorry I was meaning multiple instances of linked models in the same file, Multiplayer will work for running this process on multiple Revit files.
You’ll have to set up a loop, or create a custom node.
The former can be done via basic edits to the last four lines of the Python code above and is a great learning experience so give it a shot.
The later is easier still, and instructions CSM be found on the Dynamo primer.
