Hello, I’m trying to get the value of a family type parameter with Dynamo using the Element.GetParameterValueByName block. However, when I plug in the correct element and parameter name, the block outputs nothing. When I output the Element.Parameters to verify, it looks like they are null as well …

Orchid has some nodes for dealing with family documents, including one for parameter values. With those and a little python node to get the names of the parameter elements, you should be able to get exactly what you want. [image]

At this point we should also probably create a new thread since this is getting away from the initial request which has been answered.
