Text Field Object ID

I’m trying to create AutoCAD Text Fields automatically in dynamo, like this:
%<\AcObjProp Object(%<_ObjId 2514883671040>%).Name>%

I’m sure its a simple one, but how to I get the Autocad Object ID as a string in dyanmo to input into the field, instead of the Handle?

You’ll need a Python node, and can just access the InternalObjectId property for the Object. Try this (haven’t tested it):

obj = IN[0]
OUT = str(obj.InternalObjectId)
3

Ok, looks to be throwing an error
AttributeError : ‘list’ object has no attribute ‘InternalObjectId’ [’ File “”, line 2, in \n’]

If you have a list of objects, then you’ll need to loop through them. Something like this:

objs = IN[0]
oids = []
for obj in objs:
    oids.append(obj.InternalObjectId)
OUT = oids
