Hi Dynamo gurus,

Have anyone from you any idea, why the python node return me this traceback = **AttributeError: ‘type’ object has no attribute 'ByCoordinates’**

It seems that I’ve used wrong method for creating a point. I’ve tried to use Autodesk.Point.ByCoordnates(x,y,z) but I’ve got the same traceback but the wrong attribute was Autrodesk.

I am using the Dynamo core 2.3.0.

Thank for any help.

This is most likely a namespace conflict with the class of the same name from the Revit API ([Point](https://www.revitapidocs.com/2020/425f5b55-241d-9a02-9b64-d7e1b8123b81.htm)). As you are exclusively using classes from Autodesk.DesignScript.Geometry, I would remove the rest of the imports below line 4.

Edit: See [this post](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/getting-x-coordinates-alone-from-point-through-python-script/21789/9) from @Jonathan.Olesen for additional reference.

You’re right **[cgartland](https://forum.dynamobim.com/u/cgartland),** thanks a lot for explaining how it works.

I solved my similar issue with:

```auto
from Autodesk.DesignScript.Geometry import *

```

Which exposed the design script members.
