Hi @Murali_Kandasamy ,

Try using this below sample code

Document doc = Autodesk.Navisworks.Api.Application.ActiveDocument; DocumentSelectionSets oSets = doc.SelectionSets; Search s = new Search(); SearchCondition sc = SearchCondition.HasPropertyByDisplayName("Item", "Name"); s.SearchConditions.Add(sc.EqualValue(VariantData.FromDisplayString("ROOF_3"))); s.Selection.SelectAll(); s.Locations = SearchLocations.DescendantsAndSelf; ModelItemCollection from = s.FindAll(doc, false); doc.CurrentSelection.Clear(); doc.CurrentSelection.CopyFrom(from); SavedItem newItem = new SelectionSet(doc.CurrentSelection.SelectedItems); newItem.DisplayName ="SelectionSetName"; Autodesk.Navisworks.Api.Application.ActiveDocument.SelectionSets.InsertCopy(0, newItem);
