Hello all,

I have an excel file with some coordinates. I want to model an axe based on these coordinates. So I created an adaptive family, but when I run the script in Revit I don’t get the geometry of the adaptive family.

Any thoughts?

Thank you!

This node needs a list of lists, so assuming your adaptive component requires 12 points, you can wrap the point list in another list.

Could you please explain it to me more in detail?  
Thank you!

Have a look at how the sample for this node works: [Dynamo Dictionary](https://dictionary.dynamobim.com/#/Revit/Elements/AdaptiveComponent/Action/ByPoints)
