Revit pipes failing to export

Help
1

Hey Team,

We are using the speckle connector and running into some issues with some pipes not able to be converted. We are using the speckle community server and using the latest version of the Revit plugin (2.18.0). The model is in Revit 2021, but I have upgraded it to 2024 with no luck on either.

The errors in the report say “Object reference not set to an instance of an object”.

In the logs it says:

The model we are using is sensitive so I can’t share the full thing on the forum but I have extracted the problematic element into a new revit file that I have attached.
FailingPipe.rvt (1.1 MB)

Here is a link to the speckle project for that isolated revit file but keep in mind there is nothing to see as the element won’t export:

Thanks, Kate, looks like an unhandled exception - we’ll fix it.
