I am working on trying to automate some aspects of my project, and by using the USD converter in Revit Connector it helps a lot, but I wonder, is there an API to make it so I can automate the tasks related to Revit Connector for example? It would help me automate a huge amount of tasks that currently need to be done manually. If revit connector api already exists, especially for the RVT to USD conversion, please let me know.
If there is no API for Revit Connector, will it ever come out, or is planned to?
@lachlanmcdonald11 i am just another user passing by. per Discord’s chatter from last June, one of the dev in AECO, Robert, has said:
There is no access to the source, but exposing an API to the connector is on the near term roadmap .
(source - Discord)
so never say never 🤞
There is no API currently. The OV Connector works very well. You can use any internal scripting in Revit you wish and simply re-export through our connector. Or you can do the opposite. Export out to USD, open the file in USD Composer and use scripting there. Either way there is no need for an API currently.
