Hello everyone!

I found this script:

> [@Add shared parameter node](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/add-shared-parameter-node/4273/21):
>
> @truevis @Mustafa_Mahmoud @Neil_Reilly Game Over! At first shared parameter need to be created then the script is good to go. I tested this script in Revit 2016 and its working. I have attached files and created a small clip of the process hope you all like it. Files [Shared Parameter.dyn](https://forum.dynamobim.com/uploads/short-url/xCIm7QSejyoOmKRdiNrIzrpXzTP.dyn) (12.2 KB) [Shared Parameter1.xlsx](https://forum.dynamobim.com/uploads/short-url/2mjvndfmVhcg1MjfaN8BnkVuDa9.xlsx) (8.4 KB)

It’s really helpful!

I need to make some modification of that script, but I don’t know it’s possible.  
It’s any chance to attribute more than one category?

Best wishes  
Jadwiga

Yes possible add category names in excel, Python script will add that category automatically in project.

Cheers!

I’m just checking my question was percise.  
I want to attribute more than one category to one parameter.  
For example, in some parameters I want to have in categories: Doors and Windows.

When I put in this form, script doesn’t work.
