Hi guys, I want to create project parameters using dynamo but I need the parameters to be part of a key schedule so they cannot be shared parameters. [Capture] I have found two nodes one built-in and one from the orchid package. They both say that they create document parameters but when I chec…

Revit will only allow programmatically creating parameters from an external definition, not an internal one. This means that unless there is a user action, all parameters are shared parameters which means no key schedule parameters. This has been the case for awhile now, and as far as I know continu…

Thanks Jacob for looking into this. The Archi-lab node helps feed data in a key schedule that already have the parameters so nothing really. We are stuck with both facts Revit does not allow to programmaticaly create project parameters and Key schedules dont allow to use share parameters!!!

Ah, shucks - thought Lonrad May have had some black magic. Least it is a one time thing to create (you can transfer the key schedule view next time which brings the parameters with it). Also, it won’t help today (or this Revit release) but check the roadmaps for this year as there is a relevant top…

Fingers cross, hopefully we can see this functionality included in the next update!!! via GIPHY

Has this issue being addressed in more recent Dynamos? I am using the “Parameter.CreateProjectParameter” node and I cannot make anything but shared parameters… Thank you

if you are asking about keyschedule as orginal poster is in revit 2023 you can use shared parameter in key schedule though.

Ugh, I need a non shared parameter too.

[image] dfoth: I need a non shared parameter Why? Not asking to be a jerk, but genuinely curious as the benefits of project parameters are significantly less and on one has given a compelling reason for programmatic project parameter creation.

Follow-up question just cause I’m curious and want to understand. When the current node makes a “project parameter” (shared parameter) does it write a shared parameter text file and store it somewhere? Or does it write it and delete it? One of the disadvantages of Shared Parameters is that they ca…

The Revit API only allows creation of shared parameters at this time.

Set Parameter by two zipped values, how?
