I’m trying to copy data into an instance parameter created in a schedule, is this even possible?

![Schedule%20Parameter](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/9/c/9c006528b87a7a88f76df3c6f24f4d3d3b403702.JPG)

What I’m trying to do is copy the description of a material, assigned to a door, to a parameter added to a schedule. I can get the data I want to copy, but I can’t add it to the schedule as I can’t access the parameter I want to copy to.

I know I can do this by adding a project parameter, but it would be adding extra parameters to the project.
