Description

Do you have specific workflows that you wish were built into Revit’s core functionality?

Are there activities that you do on every project that you wish you had a more efficient way of completing?

Do you wish you could automate the more tedious and time consuming tasks on projects so you can focus on design?

Harness the power of the Python programming language to create your own tools and scripts to speed up your work within Autodesk Revit. By using freely available software you will learn how to access the Revit Application Programming Interface (API) to take advantage of functionality of the software that is not available out-of-the-box.

After setting up the required software and resources you will be guided through the process of creating simple tools using Python. All of the scripts and content created as part of the course will be downloadable, allowing you to follow along by whichever means you prefer.
