due to a project, I need to place door description texts on my plans. These description texts need to follow a certain key that is given by the client. One part of the description key is the room number.
Unfortunately, Revit doesn`t allow to use the “from-room” / “to-room” information as a parameter for description texts.
So I had the idea to copy the given information (from-room/to-room) to an extra shared parameter and map this with dynamo.
Now I failed to receive this information as a string from dynamo. Get Parameter Value by name doesn’t work to achieve a solution.

#Preparing input from dynamo to revit
doors = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
torooms = []
frrooms = []
#Do some action in a Transaction
TransactionManager.Instance.EnsureInTransaction(doc)
for i in doors:
torooms.append(i.ToRoom)
for x in doors:
frrooms.append(x.FromRoom)
TransactionManager.Instance.TransactionTaskDone()
OUT = torooms, frrooms
