The two scripts Export and Import Revit Family Types of a given Family to and form Excel.
Thanks to Aussie BIM Guru for the inspirational videos that cover a good portion of the scripts.
I took a different aproach with the Import script.
Thanks for following my videos and improving the workflow - I was aware there were probably some changes required depending on the project and family parameters being updated.
Also, great work on implementing a full UI and clean node groupings!
Generally no, but I hope to develop some for Crumple eventually. If you know where to look you can find the old Python version of Orchid as well which shows how to do this without custom nodes technically.
Hi, the excel template is shared, in the first post.
Keep in mind this is just an empty file, it will be populated with data once you run the script. You should only format the columns according to the data type you are importing in them.
Example in the video, column A is Type Name so the column A in excel should be General or Text. Column F is Width parameter, so the the format for colum F should be Number.
The IMPORT excel is just a copy of the exported one with different data values.
Just save as the EXPORT file and rename.
