Insert Block Script Block Name Conflict

Scripting

I am also suffering from this same issue. Block name conflicts interrupting automated file inserts.
Because I don’t care about preserving block information, my solution right now is to explode all block instances and delete all block definitions before each _-Insert using this function:

def explode_and_delete_all_blocks():
    blocknames = rs.BlockNames()
    for bn in blocknames:
        instances = rs.BlockInstances(bn)
        for inst in instances:
            rs.ExplodeBlockInstance(inst)
        rs.DeleteBlock(bn)
