IfcExportAs and IfcExportType shared parameter creation

[arghavan.A]

Hi!

I'm creating a IfcExportAs shared parameter (and IfcExportType), and I have some short questions that I appreciate if someone could help me out.

Firstly, I was wondering if I have to set the type of parameter as "text"?

Then, in the Project Parameter section, should I let it be set as "Instance" or "Type"? And what about IfcExportType, should I follow the same procedure, and choose Type instead?

Thanks!

Is it a text value? Then use "Text". Is the text value unique for each instance? Then use "Instance".

Thanks! But I'm not sure if "the text value is unique for each instance".
