You’ll need to unwrap the Dynamo element first. You’ll find more info on this here:

Thanks Venkov!

I didn’t even think of it, and the error message wasn’t very helpful (Expected Wall, got Wall).

I am still learning the quirks of the APIs But I ended up using it in a wall created in the code and it worked as expected

wall = Wall.Create(doc, line, ElementId(wall_t.Id), ElementId(level.Id), height, base_height_off, False, is_structural)

if not join_walls:

WallUtils.DisallowWallJoinAtEnd(wall, 0)

WallUtils.DisallowWallJoinAtEnd(wall, 1)

if flip_walls:

wall.Flip()
