Hi, I’m trying to collect all reference callouts of a detail view to get the data of which sheet number all the references are. Is there a node for this? or is there a way to collect all the callouts to work from there? I would need to get all reference callouts from a linked model too
Not sure how to code GetReferenceCallouts Method
does this collect all reference callouts for one detail?
what category are you selecting in english? Im in revit 2021
Can anyone give me a hand with the python?

import clr
# Import DocumentManager and TransactionManager
clr.AddReference("RevitServices")
import RevitServices
from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager
doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
# Import RevitAPI
clr.AddReference("RevitAPI")
import Autodesk
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
# Import ToDSType(bool) extension method
clr.AddReference("RevitNodes")
import Revit
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.Elements)
view = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
viewref = view.GetReferenceCallouts()
OUT = viewref
Try this:

import clr
# Import DocumentManager and TransactionManager
clr.AddReference("RevitServices")

doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument

clr.AddReference("RevitAPI")

# Import ToDSType(bool) extension method
clr.AddReference("RevitNodes")
import Revit
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.Elements)
view = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
viewrefs = []
for i in view:
viewref = i.GetReferenceCallouts()
viewrefs.append(viewref)
OUT = viewrefs
When I add or delete referenced call outs. The all elements of category for views list dosnt change so its not picking them up. I think I have to try collect the callouts as a family or element somehow because if I pick it I can get these parameters I need
That getreferencecallouts method, can you do it to get the element Id then I can select it through that?
found this in a form. Had to type it out from a pic. Cant get it to work but maybe it could be of help to get a views callout element

That code works fine :

def GetAllCallouts(_doc, _OSTviewers):
CalloutParent = []

paraIndex = BuiltInParameter.SECTION_PARENT_VIEW_NAME

if parameter != None:
element = _doc.GetElement(view.get_Parameter
(paraIndex).AsElementId())
if element!= None:
CalloutParent.append(view)
return CalloutParent
OUT = GetAllCallouts(doc,OSTviewers)
Check, there are here some spelling mistakes
it does to… Had to close and open dynamo again or it was from using what you posted with fixed errors thanks. Would be much easier to get the reference callouts from a view. I’ve also got to figure out how to get referenced callouts from a linked file 
Goodluck
