#Revit MEP Space Type Control with #DynamoBIM

A question recently came up over at Revit forum regarding getting and setting space parameters for space type in Revit with Dynamo.

And for those who may not be familiar with the space type parameter, here are the options.

Initially I thought this was an impossible task, but thankfully we have python and access to the Revit API! There are now several nodes in Rhythm to gather this data.

There are now four nodes to assist in modifying these parameters.
