Summary: Currently the Structural Connections created in the 'Structural Connection' tool do not contain Revit parameters as its created essentially through a Revit add-on to my understanding. It would be great if there were Revit parameters to pull data off into tags or schedules.

Description: Currently the Structural Connections created in the 'Structural Connections' tool do not contain Revit parameters as its created essentially through a Revit add-on to my understanding. I understand that these are not being controlled by Revit Parameters but if we could have Revit Parameters created which draw the information from the tool if would greatly increase the viability of these tools being able to schedule and tag the data from these onto drawings. Currently I see them as dimensional geometry with no data (Inside of Revit).

If they had 'placeholder' Revit parameters created which draw the data from the connection tool for things like plate/bolts size, grade, number of, etc. it would then be able to be scheduled and tagged. Would only require to be the important data that cannot be shown dimensional, things like plate sizes, etc. can be dimensioned on the drawings. These don't need to be editable at all, can be all controlled within the Structural Connections box and just an uneditable parameter.
