Problem on exporting GBXML file using my own ribbon

[thailandbimuser]

I created my own ribbon in Revit 2019. I want to export model data into gbxml file by clicking "Export GBXML" pushbutton that I created.

After that, I defined the location and clicked to save the XML file.

But there was a warning appeared as picture below. Could you suggest any solution? Thank you in advance.

Hi @thailandbimuser ,

This exception is thrown when one of the arguments provided to a method is not valid.

so the problem may be with the Export Method .

In your code Please check whether you have provided a proper file name, the proper folder name and also check whether you set GBXML ExportOption properly.

Hi, 

I think I identified the file name and folder name, as well as set GBXML ExportOption already. Could you please help consider my source code and suggest? Thank you very much.

Hi @thailandbimuser ,

I think the problem may be with the GBLEXPORTOPTIONS.

You need to set the energy model type from which gbXML will be exported.

 GBXMLExportOptions option = new GBXMLExportOptions();

//Depending on your project elements set the exportenergymodeltype
                option.ExportEnergyModelType = ExportEnergyModelType.BuildingElement;
                         (or)
                option.ExportEnergyModelType = ExportEnergyModelType.SpatialElement;
