Hi there,  
yesterday I was searching the forum to get info about how to get the reflectivity of a material and I stumbled in this topic (in which is discussed how to SET such prooperty).  
In my understanding such material property can be accessed via API (so with a python node under the hood) but there is not a package with a custom node for it yet.  
Can someone point me in the right direction?  
What should be changed from the code of @simone.versini.NEE in order to get it to work?  
Thanks in advance.

> Hi Simone, There are indeed no nodes for reflectivity but there is one to define the color tint among other properties.

If you use nodes “Material Get Appearance Asset” and “Appearance Asset Get Properties” from Genius Loci package you can get reflectivity values.
