Open to suggestions for e better workflow.
My objective: report coordinates in a schedule of a family (can be any family). I just need the schedule to show the x (Easting) and y (Northing) of several hundred points in a model.
So far I have a site family element that has an instance parameter of northing easting. I can update the parameters using this dynamo script successfully but I can't figure out how to pull these into a schedule.

you need to add instance parameters "Nothing" and "Easting" to the family in Revit?
Is the node set parameter value by name not working? this node works for instance parameters not type...If you are using type parameters you might need to use Element.Type node
Otherwise use the set parameter node from Rhythem package
Last but not least, the dynamo forum is on Dynamobim.org

Hi @RDAOU ,
Thanks for your response. As I've stated in my post "So far I have a site family element that has two instance parameters: northing & easting".
So, the family already has the instance parameters established. I can update the parameters successfully with the node <Element.SetParamaterByName> which grabs the coordinates of the element and sets the parameters to that coordinate. They need to be instance parameters because each element is at a different coordinate (x,y).
As I stated in my original post: "I can update the parameters using this dynamo script successfully but I can't figure out how to pull these into a schedule." So the question is actually about a schedule: How can I report these parameters in a schedule?
If there is a better way to report the x y location of elements in a schedule I'm all ears.
Thanks,
If you added the parameter in the family they need to be a Shared Instance Parameter ... otherwise you wont be able to schedule them
Otherwise you could add these parameters as Project instance Parameter added to the family category...those can be scheduled too
Shared parameters from the family and project parameters can be used/added as fields in schedules
(PS: the family could be any category, however, instead of Site I would have used entourage category )
