Operating system

Windows 10

Revit and Dynamo version

(Which version of Revit, Dynamo and Orchid are you using? Go to Help > About if you're not sure. for Orchid version, go to Packages > Manage Packages)
Revit: 2023.1.3
Dynamo: 2.16.2
Orchid: 2.16.5.6225

What did you do?

FamilyParameter.GroupType node returns null instead of INVALID when inputting "Other" . ( https://www.revitapidocs.com/2023/9942b791-2892-0658-303e-abf99675c5a6.htm "Other" is missing here too but it should be there for INVALID. Assuming Autodesk had this initially as a catch all but did not document that its used for "Other")

What did you expect to see?

return grouptype enum INVALID

What did you see instead?

null

You are right, the Dynamo team has somehow deprecated "INVALID", it is not the Revit team... but it is annoying. I don’t know what to do in writing about it, but I am considering writing my own forge units. For now, I can't help you :-S

Shouldn't have been so quick to point the finger! 'Identity Data' it is then :D

that is a doable workaround for now I think :-)
