Create view template from excel?

Revit
1

Hello,

Im not really active in this forum but i don’t find anywhere a solution.

I have a doubt, i would like to know if it is possible to crerate a view template from a excel file, that way i can send that script dynamo + excel to my subcontractor.

i have to create several views and then apply a template, i know how to create the views and apply a template but i would like to create a template that he doesn’t have.

Or maybe create a rvt projet with all templates that he can link in his projet and copy the templates to apply to his views??

This template i will choose only to show or hide some elements in every view. i would like to automtize all of it so my subcontractor can just do “RUN” and all is done.

anyone thinks it is possible?

So when I check the API, it is not possible to create a “New ViewTemplate” directly. But if I were you, I could go this way.

With this way, I can only produce new versions and options with an existing “center template”.

Thanks!!

Maybe i can duplicate a template then create some filters and add those filters to the template?

This is not correct.
You can create a View Template with the API and the View CreateViewTemplate node of the Genius Loci package.
You can then set its properties.

Indeed, for Revit 2019 you must duplicate an existing view template.
