Is there a way to get the user’s username as displayed in the “account information” window in revit through dynamo?
Is there a way to access this value maybe using python node or code block node to get it?
Thankyou

This is the property you are after: Username Property
Most boilerplate Python templates have an app = … line. As such once you set your template to include that all you need to do is set out to app.Username
and you are done. There may also be a few custom nodes for this (Archi-Lab comes to mind).

clr.AddReference("RevitAPI")

clr.AddReference("RevitNodes")

clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.GeometryConversion)
clr.AddReference("RevitServices")

from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager
from RevitServices.Transactions import TransactionManager
doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
uidoc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentUIApplication.ActiveUIDocument
# ✅ item
element = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
# 🎯 user
OUT = element.get_Parameter(BuiltInParameter.EDITED_BY).AsValueString()
