Designscript in python

Revit API
1

Hi everybody,

Is there somebody who know s if its possible to use the designscript code /API from dynamo in a regular pythonscript with ut the use of dynamo itself?

I need some geometric intersections in my code and this is very buggy in the regular revit API or it is a big hassle with lots of workarounds to get faces to intersect.
The Designscript api work a lot bettre for this kind of work, but then i have to deal with a slow dynamo with is bad for scaling the script up.

Hi @AlexanderVDB, this article and this Autodesk forum discussion should answer your question.

Long story short, you can’t use designscript or the protogeometry assembly outside of dynamo.
