Export Excel From Dynamo in Formit

FormIt
1

Hi guys,

We are currently investigating the use of Dynamo with Formit.
I had this issue when exporting Levels Areas to Excel.
The value from Dynamo does not match the value in Formit.
I noticed that Dynamo was reading the Formit units as Imperial when they were actually Metric and converting the values ​​back to Metric again!

This wired behaviour can be seen in the attached screenshot.

Here is the JSON API used to get the areas

If anyone has the same problem, I would appreciate it if you could give me your opinion.

thank you

For dynamo for revit its quite normal that values accessed via the api are not the same as you see them, as you may changed your units to metric but the program was developed in imperial. Just convert them back to metric before you export them to excel.
