Get entity field name from data storage

[prakash.muthu]

Hi, 

How to read entity field value without knowing field name. Is there options to list down all fields in entity.

FilteredElementCollector collector = new FilteredElementCollector(doc);
collector.OfClass(typeof(DataStorage));

foreach (DataStorage dataStorage in collector)
{
    IList<Guid> list = dataStorage.GetEntitySchemaGuids();
    foreach (Guid guid in list)
    {
        Schema schema = Schema.Lookup(guid);
        Entity entity = dataStorage.GetEntity(schema);
        if (entity != null && entity.IsValid())
        {
              //read entity field

             //string field_value = entity.Get<string>(field_name);
         }

    }

I'm not sure offhand. However, RevitLookup enables you to examine extensible storage data, so you can use that to check out what information can and cannot be accessed programmatically, and how it can be done.
