I have followed this link for installing the required Tools 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88zIQCZw8BA' Thanks in Advance.
**CODE IS:-**
**import clr

import Autodesk
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
print('success')**
Exception has occurred: FileNotFoundException
Could not load file or assembly 'RevitAPI' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
