I’m trying to import in revit a Dynamo surface using ImportInstance.ByGeometry Node. But when the geometry is placed in revit, is in a diferent place and scale, I’m working with metters but I already tried with inches and feet but is the same result. Can somebody please Help me. Thank you.

## Report to Autodesk
I just reported them with the following Ids:
RVTPR-00802
RVTPR-00803
I expect ImportInstance.By Geometry is broken like this in Revit 2022 due to document.import change happened, which is undocumented actually anywhere.. as the new method uses ShapeImporter code, instead of an old unmaintained code.
And ShapeImporter doesn't require scaling or transforming to get the geometry right.
Therefor, a change is urgently needed in ImportInstance.By Geometry and ImportInstance.ByGeometries Dynamo For Revit Nodes.
and many times on the forum - the latest update on the thread implies a fix will be in the next Revit release.

Hello, you are right, is a versio bug, I just tried in Revit 2021 and it works perfectly, so I hope they will fix this soon. Thank you for your help.
