HI @mahadev.v 

   3rd Argument is ParameterType  i.e which type of value  you're going to save. (ex. Text,Number, Length, Area) use the

ParameterType  Enum for this. 

Reference Code:

 Document doc = commandData.Application.ActiveUIDocument.Document;

            using (Transaction createGlobalParameter = new Transaction(doc, "Create Global Parameter"))
            {
                createGlobalParameter.Start();

                //By using Parameter, use can able to fill only number
                GlobalParameter param = GlobalParameter.Create(doc, "Demo Length Parameter", ParameterType.Length);


                //By using Parameter, use can able to fill only Text
                GlobalParameter param_02 = GlobalParameter.Create(doc, "Demo Text Parameter", ParameterType.Text);


                createGlobalParameter.Commit();
            }

Hi @mahadev.v 

 For Revit 2024, Instead of Enum Kindly use SpecTypeId.Length class for forgetypeId, Autodesk  have updated the Enum to class

Hope this will helps 🙂
