Just to confirm, this only works for 3D view, doesn't it?
I got this from plan views and sections:

[pawelbaran]

Which Revit version did you test against @vietle-bh? The API has changed in the context of applicable views, in older versions it was only 3d, but then I thought some more got enabled

I got the error in Revit 2022 & 2023 😅

[pawelbaran]

So... In Revit 2018 we have this:

...while in 2023...

So it should work for at least some types of 2d views I guess?

[vietle-bh]

Do you mean the link itself @vietle-bh? Or the member elements of the link? If only the link, then I would leave it as it, usually filtering by active view will be combined with other queries I guess...

It's the Revit link instance itself, and yes, let's leave it as-is 👍

[vietle-bh]

Testing and discussion went well 👍
