Hi All
Is it possible to get “Schedulable Fields” from “Select available Fields from” in schedules using dynamo ?
Regards
Yes. Use ScheduleView.SchedulableFields to list all available fields. It’s included in the Revit package.

I had a look at this but only parameters available are from “Multi category” cant see any revit links or other ones ill have a look again.
Thanks
Yeah that node, should give you every schedulable field from all categories in the list that you are referencing, including the RVT Links

Hi Thanks for your time again.
Yes i can get like this if its set to this category.
I do require parameters from all 4 category’s and want to switch between them when creating schedule is it possible to select parameters from each category using dynamo ?
I do create Multy category schedule using dynamo and i have 4 categories that hold required parameters for schedule but struggling to find a way to switch between category’s as by default it only give me parameters from “Multi category”.
Regards
I am assuming that you are using Dynamo to add the fields to the schedule. You just filter through the list by the names of the fields and add those fields to the schedule.
Example: list being fed into the List.Flatten node is a list of field names that I want to add to the schedule.
This method is not dependent on which category you have selected as active in your schedule.

Thanks again for your time.
That’s where my problem is these parameters from different categories no available to filter from and i do require to switch some how to see them in dynamo.
This what im trying to achieve but no joy yet
Regards
Yeah you shouldn’t have to switch. If you want to provide your graph and a stripped down version of your model, we can test to help see where the problem lies.

Thanks Please see below
This is how schedule is created its non project specific as cant get any further than this at this point
And if you connect “ScheduleView.SchedulableFields” you will see that only "Multi category parameters available.

The results above was using your code. But you can refine your code to as shown below, if you want.
import clr
clr.AddReference('RevitAPI')

clr.AddReference('RevitServices')

#Preparing input from dynamo to revit
schedule = []
names = IN[0]
id = ElementId.InvalidElementId
TransactionManager.Instance.EnsureInTransaction(doc)
for i in names:
newSchedule = ViewSchedule.CreateSchedule(doc,id)
newSchedule.Name = i
schedule.append(newSchedule)
TransactionManager.Instance.TransactionTaskDone()
OUT = schedule

Hi,
a solution using FieldType property and a dictionary

doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
view = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
lst_SchedulableField = view.Definition.GetSchedulableFields()
categoryId_schedule = view.Definition.CategoryId
if categoryId_schedule == ElementId.InvalidElementId:
category_name = "multi-category"
else:
cat = Category.GetCategory(doc, categoryId_schedule)
category_name = cat.Name
dict_field_type = dict(zip(System.Enum.GetValues(ScheduleFieldType), System.Enum.GetNames(ScheduleFieldType)))
#
lst_fieldType_Category = [ScheduleFieldType.ElementType, ScheduleFieldType.Instance, ScheduleFieldType.Count]
#
out_dict = {}
for sch_field in lst_SchedulableField:
if sch_field.FieldType in lst_fieldType_Category:
field_TypeName = category_name
else:
field_TypeName = dict_field_type[sch_field.FieldType]
if field_TypeName not in out_dict:
out_dict[field_TypeName] = [sch_field]
else:
out_dict[field_TypeName].append(sch_field)
OUT = out_dict

Thanks All got it working
Hi,
I tried the above code. In my project, there are 330 fields under ‘Multiple Categories’, but in dynamo, there are 1258 fields under the same as the result of this code.
Is there any workaround to get those 330 fields exactly?
Hi,
I didn’t find any workaround,
same problem here
Awesome i asked for this 2 years ago and resolved with mix of nodes and pythons but not that great
