Reload Links from API

[Thomas Maleski]

Is it posible to reload links or groups already contain in a project file thru the API? or can this be done with journal files?

I'm working on a project with 600 linked files, it's a modular building.

I also am looking for this.

I am going over the Revit API Object Model again and again, but cannot find where Revit Links are exposed. Anyone know?

I can give you a start - but I'm pretty sure that the capability you're looking for doesn't exist thru the API.

You can find Linked models by looking for Instance elements. Instance is a parent class of FamilyInstance - but Linked models show up in this parent class.

Looking thru parameters you can see a little information about them - but not much.

There are no specific methods associated with the Instance class to reload it.

Good Luck,
Matt

It'd be a lot of hacking but a journal file would be easiest of the alternatives. 600 linked files , OMG !!!

600 linked files, but their only a 12 x 50 box. A 200 mod structure with separate RA, RSt and RSy models.
