Point Cloud file list

Hi,

I am looking to retrieve all the linked Point Cloud files within a model using Dynamo but struggling to do so.

I tried the Node “Get All Revit Links as Element List” but it does not display Point Clouds…i even tried editing the Python script and adding

from Autodesk.Revit.DB.PointClouds import *

to no avail…

Can’t quite remember but are point clouds listed in the categories node? (not at the PC ATM)

hi I am not too sure, although i have kind of managed to do what i wanted to do using OOTB nodes.

How so? And why only kinda?

Element Types (set to PointCloudInstance) and All Elements of Type should get you where you need to go.
