Hello guys, i have a problem :). I want to copy the phases from a revit link. The link has 19 phases and I want them to be transferred to my file. Copying 19 phases manually is very long. Is there a script that allows you to copy the phases of a link and transfer them to my file? thx ---

> Is there a script that allows you to copy the phases of a link and transfer them to my file? i don’t find any phase creation method in rvt 25. so likely, there isn’t. ---

Hi, phase inherit `Element` class so `DB.ElementTransformUtils.CopyElements()` should be possible between documents _it will be necessary to check if the order is preserved_ **after testing it did not work** 🙄 > **[CopyElements Method (Document, ICollection(ElementId), Document, Transform,...](https://www.revitapidocs.com/2026/b22df8f6-3fa3-e177-ffa5-ba6c639fb3dc.htm)** > > Online Documentation for Autodesk's Revit API: 2015, 2016, 2017, 2017.1, 2018 ---

@c.poupin it throws a “Project Phase cannot be copied” exception which i don’t find it documented in rvt 2025’s dll. ---

@Lorenz751 I never tried it, so tested it and… although there is a checkbox for Phases in de add-in it doesn’t work, so don’t bother downloading the add-in ---

I believe I used to accomplish this by binding a link… 🤔 ---

I didn’t share it outside of the company I worked at then, and I don’t have too much recollection of how it was done either - this predated my time on the Dynamo forum so we are talking 10(ish) years ago now and my brief exploration didn’t turn up much.
