I need to reload multiple revit link instance. My problem is that i need to reload from… multiple files from a different location and with different filename. For instance; we name our files as: Archi = X\_Archi Plumbing = X\_Plumbing I have a mixed file loaded in my project, the ones with the “X” and the ones without the “X” I need to reload from those files without the “X” I cannot remove and relink the file as i already have filters and hide elements set… I am trying to use this but it’s not working as the filename is different. My other concern is that we are using a network drive without a letter assigned to it. So if i use the directory path node, i cannot browse to the proper project folder.

Hi @Revit_Noob, I advise you to use the _Repath RevitLinkInstance_ node. It works with a filepath for each linkInstance to reload. ![Repath%20RevitLinkInstance](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/3/e/3e9fb15343a894f3e693152dedea343d3ac144b1.png) ---

how about the filename? because the file with the x and without the x are in different directories… if i repath the file without the x to the directory of the file with the x it will not be found… ---

Sorry, your problem is not clear to me. 1\_Identify the linkInstances that you need to repath, 2\_Provide a new file path for each linkInstance. So 2 lists : List of LinkInstances, List of filepaths ---

I have 2 directories, say D1 and D2. Their filenames are the same except that D2 has a “X” prefix. My linked files consists of both with and without the prefix. I need to repath those links without the prefix to D2. ---

Something like this? ![RepathInvalidLinks](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/7/2/72a34130d2e4c8f1ca930b97f9759c02c501532b.png) ---

Your graph should work. I will have done something more automatic For example : ![Repath%20LinkInstances](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/1/c/1c28394469b731123b7eb81cc27d7168f67a01d7.png) ---

Thanks so much! will try this one out. My concern is that our network drive does not come with a letter “c:” or something else. So when i use the Directory.Path node i cannot browse to the folder. ---

Hi, This new issue isn’t related to your original subject and the use of the _Repath RevitLinkInstance_ node and is now a matter of managing lists of filenames. I’ve already solved your original problem so start a new topic and I will show you how to answer this new question.
