Hi, I´m trying to collect all walls that have a Type Name that Begins with “Revestimiento”. I´m trying to do this with python, because i´m practicing.
When I use FILTERSTRINGCONTAINS it gives me an error, I think the args* Im giving are wrong. I searched in Revit API docs, but the detail of the arguments to be delivered does not appear.

doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
bip = BuiltInParameter.ALL_MODEL_TYPE_NAME
provider = ParameterValueProvider(ElementId(bip))
evaluator = FilterStringEquals()
rule = **FilterStringContains(provider, evaluator, "Revestimiento", False)**
filter = ElementParameterFilter(rule)
walls = FilteredElementCollector(doc).OfClass(Wall).WherePasses(filter).ToElements()
OUT = walls
