Element.GetParameterValueByName does not return parameter value

[theshysnail]

Hi all,

Element.GetParameterValueByName does not return the value of “Volume” parameter (Instance) for some of the objects in Revit 2020 (Dynamo 2.3) project. However, it’s visible in Element.Parameters node.

Did you run?

Yes. I ran the graph. This issue is with some of the structural foundations.
Is there a way I can quickly get the actual numerical Volume value out of element.parameters node?

That’s because you seem to have multiple parameters with the same name
Try something like this …
