How to pull Cost data into Revit From Fabrication Parts

Is there a way to pull the cost data into Revit from the fabrication database & apply it to the parameters? I know it's visible through the Fabrication API but is there a simple way to access it in Revit without having to dig into all that? Or a dynamo script to quickly plug that information in? I won't be using this for a live database as this is for testing purposes only.

Hello,

 

The best workflow is to use cost estimation software to input cost values.

Using Revit may become a massive task in the long run.

I have the pricing in the fabrication software but I don't see it in the surface level of the fabrication parts parameters that are pulled into Revit. I tried using Revit lookup and they don't appear in any of the built-in parameters.
