Finding something from API for Tool.AssemblyView

Revit
1

Hi, I’m trying to add Create Generic Model Schedule to the Tool.AssemblyViews node. I’m struggling to find it in the 2017.1 API website. Never used it so I’m pretty lost. Got here. Maybe its CreateSingleCategorySchedule Method? Help would be greatly appreciated. Even with adding the code if its simple for you. I’m bound to screw it up

tried changing this

if IN[9] == 1:	
		ds9=AssemblyViewUtils.CreatePartList(doc,a)
		views.append(ds9)

to

if IN[9] == 1:	
		ds9=AssemblyViewUtils.CreateSingleCategorySchedule(doc,a)
		views.append(ds9)

no luck though

I don’t know if it will help, but this method seems to have at least 3 parameters instead of 2:
CreateSingleCategorySchedule(Document, ElementId, ElementId)
CreateSingleCategorySchedule(Document, ElementId, ElementId, ElementId, Boolean)

I suppose you’ve seen this thread already:

Thanks but i’m not sure if it helps me. Have 140 assemblies to create a generic model schedule for. Might just do this one by hand.

so far to do this task we use this one.
would be great to see it in the Too.AssemblyView Node.
