Hi All,

Hi Mr.Jeremy Tammik,

I'm trying to connect revit to server nodejs localhost follow the directions of Mr.Jeremy Tammik (roomedit3d).
When i test by Program.cs . Everything seem fine.

But when i test code to Revit listen event from server isn't fine. Nothing happened in Revit
I don't know why.
Please help me if you can.
Many thanks.

Here is IExternalEventHandler:

Please start from scratch with a simpler sample.

Roomedit3d is far too complex for anyone else to help you with.

Sorry, but that is a sample you will have to handle yourself or not at all, as far as I can judge.

If you want to start working with Revit Design Automation and Forge, I would suggest starting our from one of the more recent official samples:

Thank you for the advice. I'll do it.
I'll comeback roomedit3d later.
