When I try to extract the family and type of the categories Windows, doors, generic models, sanitary appliances which are grouped in Objects.BuiltElements.Revit.RevitElementType:Objects.BuiltElements.Revit.RevitSymbolElementType They do not appear, how can I solve this issue? I cannot find that information in any of the other columns. They do not appear.

hi @pjojoa,

Can you share a bit more information with us so we can help you?

• Are you referring to Power BI parameter extraction or another application?
• Can you share with us your Speckle Model URL?
• Can you also share few screenshots of what are you trying exactly to do?

Hey @pjojoa

You have a lot of Revit Instances in your model. The data is detached and you simply need to reference the Revit Instance back to the element/type.

You can read more about how to do that here:

Filtering data in power BI recieved from Revit by category & family & type

Ok, i think i know what’s going on. You have lots of instances in your model and those instances don’t directly have the “category”, “type”, “parameters”, “zone” fields you were referencing too. You can learn more about what instances are in this blog. @jonathon shared a workaround for this problem using Power BI. We need to relate these instances back to their reference elements/types. I converted @jonathon 's suggestion into a Power BI function. Please refer to the following guide for more …

or here:

Revit Instances in Power BI

Sorry for the delay @salpbes, we’ve been busy getting lots of things done. What you are seeing is a consequence of the development of Revit Instance support in Speckle. The Instance and the Definition do carry different data on each. There is no way to carry instance data on the definition object. What we have chosen to do, is keep the Definition data where is sourced rather than propagate to the Instance. That being said, to get the data you want is a straightforward Self Join. I’ll break t…

If you can share with us your Speckle URL, we can take a closer look.
