ElementID to all the object in Revit

Packages
1

Hello,

I’m a newbie in Dynamo.

Is it posible to assign the ElementId to each object in the Model.

I will assign a shared parameter ElementId to all the objects before running the Dynamo script.

The aim is to nicely update scheduled data to Excell (to avoid overwrite of your own inserted lines of non Revit-elements).

Thanks in advance.

Jo.

hi, every element in revit has an ID and a GUID.

you can access them from dynamo with i.e.

ElementId

Id to Element

Get_Id

Get_guid

Elements to IDs

IDs to Elements

then you go and I/O with excel

Thanks for your quick reply.

It isn’t all clear for me up to now but this is due my lock of knowledge of Dynamo.

The good news is that it is possible.

I will give a try in the days to come.
