This was a really important step for us, as this automation was one of the first that we integrated for our client and around 100 ACC users can now use that in the growing number of projects that we are currently moving from on-prem to ACC.Īs we derived most of the code from the source you provided, I am glad to share the few modifications that we made to make it work for us in Design Automation. We tested it in a lot of scenarios, small and large files, and it always worked as expected. It really worked great and much faster than our previous attempts! Later: some feedback on the integration of the Purge Code from the Dynamo for Revit code base: That looks very relevant, as it includes a method to purge materials. Response: Thank you very much for the quick response.

Not sure how closely that follows the ETransmit code, or if it’s a viable option, but it's worth a review all the same. Question: We are trying to implement the eTransmit functionality in DA4R, the Forge Design Automation API for Revit.Īnswer: This might be another good instance of learning from the Dynamo for Revit code base, as there is The Forge Design Automation for Revit API, DA4R, The task of purging a step further and implemented it for Many thanks again to Matt and Ollie for providing this. There's also an IronPython version of more or less the same in I had a quick go at putting this together in C#. Thanks to Matt for sharing and to Jeremy for spreading the knowledge! Ollie ported it to both C# and Python, saying: Matt Taylor, associate and CAD developer at WSP, provided the original implementation in VB.NET. Thank you for the code and thanks to Ollie for publishing it in C#. WOAW this post is awesome, and it seems to work in Revit 2021 very well! You can purge unused using Performance Adviser,Īs Virone Lorenzo also underlined in his comment:

Here are some past suggestions for purging unused elements:Īpparently, the last post in the list above is worthwhile pointing out again

I want to write a script to purge unused in files.Īnswer: All I am aware of is what you can find in the online help and in the web in general: Question: Is there documentation for eTransmit? Lately, a number of questions were raised on eTransmit and 'purge unused', e.g., in Today, let's return for a summary and a new, deeper look at a recurring topic:
