Hello, Is there a node to load multiple families from a folder at once? I looked on this forum but I didnt find anything. Thanks!

This is code though, not a node. Do you have to go into Revit macro creation to use this? Thanks!

Clockwork has a node as well [image]

understood erfajo, Do you know of a site or a set of resources I can go to to learn design script/python. Its not that I dont want to, its that I dont have anyone to teach me. Thanks.

Well I already went through Primer, Athought I dont feel like it was very indepth. If thats all design script is then that is pretty minimal. What do you mean python that everywhere? do you have a website or something? kind of like the dynamo dictionary?

This script doesnt seem to do anything. I saved some particular families that I wanted into the folder indicated in the script below. However after running the script, nothing seems to happen. I noticed that the Directory.ContentsAll node seems to have changed. Is it the clockwork node? I cant seem …

Hello John, How do you load an entire folder using this node? I tried using it with the directory.path node, but that doesnt seem to work. Please advise. [image]

I know it isn’t the Dynamo way- but sometimes an automated method is more work than a manual one So perhaps I am lazy, but I just drag & drop families using Windows Explorer For families in nested folders- search for *.rfa, and then drag/drop all the files from the search window. Andrew

See below video, but the process is fairly simple to load a list of families at once. Get all the relevant files and its full path(I used python os module with walk and python filtering to output a list of locations from files indicated in excel file). Once here this is inputted into the loadfamily…

Andrew, Yeah I know, but I just wanted to learn how to do it in dynamo. Thanks though!
