Orhid installation is not valid

[Mirnaath]

I have an issue with Orhid, I tried to install directly from Dynamo and package is not working.

Windows 11

Revit: 2021.1.10
Dynamo Core: 2.6.2.15705
Dynamo Revit: 2.6.2.18430
Orchid: 200.4.0.7792

I have tried to reinstall Revit and Orchid, it did not worked , I also put Orchid manually in map for packages but it did not worked.

I expected to automatic installation from Dynamo is working but it does not.
It is showing error ,attachment is there.

You must install the correct version of Orchid that corresponds to your Revit version. The version called 200 is significantly outdated. Please refer to the start page to determine which version is compatible with your Revit version. In your case, it should be named 206.x.y to be used with Revit 2021.

Versions 200 and 203 were uploaded because some users requested versions compatible with Revit versions prior to 2021. However, these versions have not been maintained for at least 3-4 years.

Hello, I have installed version 206 and put it in packages, but erorr is still the same. It says that Orhid 200.4.0.7792 is not installed, Dynamo specificaly looking for version 200.4.0.7792

It sounds like you are very new into Dynamo!?

Old graphs created with version 2.0 (200) naturally refer to that version, as this is what they were originally made with. This is not surprising. However, if you open these graphs years later in a newer version, you will need to upgrade them. In most cases, you can simply keep the current version, and the nodes will be upgraded to the new version. However, in some cases, nodes may have been deprecated, and in those situations, you will need to revise your graph.

In your case, I am sure that something needs to be revised, as there is quite a gap between version 2.0 and 2.6, like the gap between 2.6 and the current version, 3.3 (Revit 2025). Many changes occur over the years on the Revit API side, and there is nothing to do about it… you just have to adapt.

The entire package is not working, but I have colleagues in the office who have the same versions as me, both Dynamo and Revit and Orchid, and everything works fine for them.We will try to revise the nodes, although I think the problem is with the installation, not the nodes

I have made a rebuild, just to be sure, please try that.
However, I notice that you have a build 2021.1.10!? I have only Revit 2021.1.9 (build 21.1.90.15) I have not a later build than that, and by now autodesk has removed Revit 2021 since Revit 2026 is being released in few days.
