Hello everyone
Is there any other way to get category name from Document (Dynamo 2.3)

Perhaps load the families into the active (and otherwise empty) document and query the resulting category?
Im using revit 2020 (Rhythm 2021.6.1)
ʳʰʸᵗʰᵐ|Documents.DynamoDocumentToDbDocument node is not available
FamilyDocument.ByDocument this node is not available in revit 2020
yeah couldnt really remember when it comes…but strange seems in 2020 it gives autodeskdb document…and not revit application document…does it work if you do as here…
btw an other option could be as Jacob suggest
Document - string to - FamilyDocument - Not working
& I dint understand what @jacob.small suggested. please explain again
Hmm are you sure these package are updaded
@sovitek Yes i have checked,
For my revit 2020, rhythm 2021.6.1 and lower lover versions are working, above 2021.7 are not working
Your current process involves opening N family in the background, and (hopefully) closing them after you get the data.
An alternative would be to load N family files into your project, get the category data from the family elements, and then delete the family elements.
@jacob.small
But how we can filter the new loaded families and old families?
Skip the background loading, use a load family from clockwork I believe. No need to filter work with the output as you did here.
