Hi All, This was a request on Twitter, I’ve had a play and I can’t get it to work with @erfajo and @john_pierson 's awesome nodes and there doesn’t seem to be any access to the family category from a document in the Revit API…? Forgive my Python failings! http://www.revitapidocs.com/2018.1/87546b…

Get Family Category from Rfa

Reading the RFA’s text value seemed to work well for me. This means Revit doesn’t have to open it.
