I want to create a Legend with Dynamo and in this legend paste some information, like for instance a text.  
Does anyone have any idea how to create a new Legend?  
I am not sure why I dont find it on this forum, cause it should be an easy task, but I am stuck on it.  
Thanks in advance.

Legend creation wasn’t available in the API for a while. It may have been added since then, but I’m not sure. The workaround was to duplicate an existing legend then make changes.
