I want to take the coordinates of the vertices from Excel and make a plane to cut the object. It is necessary to make a plane with four or three coordinates. Can I get a Python code related to this? 😰

Hi @wodud9492 ,
What do you mean with plane ? A topo ? Workplane?
it is imput-driven f.e. CSV (i would recoment)

I am happy to read any reference, but would apreciate any help in finding a good link explaining this paticular process. import clr clr.AddReference("ProtoGeometry") from Autodesk.DesignScript.Geometry import \* x = IN[0] y = IN[1] z = IN[2] pt = [] for xpt,ypt,zpt in zip(x,y,z): pts = Point.ByCoordinates(xpt,ypt,zpt) …

that is workplane like plane.by three points node.

A Dynamo plane can be built in Python using this code snippet (assuming you have the geometry library loaded in already). Note that pntsLIst needs to be a single list of at least 3 points:
plane = Plane.ByBestFitThoughPoints(pntsList)
A geometric plane (nothing you can see in the user interface) in Revit is a bit different. The exact API call is here: [CreateByThreePoints Method](https://www.revitapidocs.com/2022/a18aa7a2-71b6-5fa2-8ca8-abadedb638d7.htm)
Note that this takes XYZ objects as inputs, so you’ll need to build XYZs from the X, Y, and Z values you were using to build points.
Any particular reason you’re using Python instead of standard Dynamo?
