Dynamo charges in Revit 2024 updates?

1

Are there any changes in 2024.3 that might break Dynamo graphs tested in 2024.2?

PS: Is there a web page that tracks Dynamo changes in different Revit versions?

My guidance for any update continues to be:

  1. Check the release notes for anything obvious.
  2. Test all of your Revit add-ins and customizations to validate no new conflicts or issues. Journals help here.
  3. Check the Dynamo version to see if it updated, and note that any changes made in the release notes there.
  4. Test your Dynamo packages and customizations to validate no new conflicts or failures on load. Logs help here.
  5. Update any packages or customizations as needed. If the environment is t sound your facing more failures with the graphs and more rework and custom coding as a result.
  6. Test your deployed graphs in the new update with the new builds. Journal Automation and maintaining a standard release dataset for testing all your graphs is key for this.
  7. Any graph that:
    1. Passes the test gets saved in the new release.
    2. Fails to pass the test gets either quickly edited and retested, or
    3. Saved to update later in the case of bigger updates of packages which need an update.
  8. Once all graphs (or enough graphs) pass push themthe Revit update, Revit add-in updates, Dynamo environment, and Dynamo fraphs to your end users.

Thank you for the advice.

I see no mention of “Dynamo” so maybe I will not go ahead and bill my client for retesting all of its apps, yet.

It would be helpful from Autodesk to have some web page that helps with that on the Dynamo side.

In this case if your graphs or add-ins touch any of the impacted classes (UI, extensible storage) then Dynamo is likely fine.

Your Revit add-ins including any toolbars which open Dynamo graphs) need to be tested closely though, which means your Revit environment may change beyond the Revit build.

Testing your Dynamo graphs for the updated build should take less than 1 minute of real work per graph of they work.
