How can I use Rhino Inside to take reference points from Grasshopper and use them as reference points in Revit to place families?
Hi Sakshi,
What version of Rhino and Revit are you working?
In general the Add Component Family is looking for a plane (which has rotation) a point will work as well.
You can reference points a number of ways.
Rhino 7 & 8 have different options, knowing your Versions and intended workflow will help determine the recommendations.
Placing a Point container in Grasshopper, right clicking while having your points selected is one way.

Thank you, @Japhy. Your advice was helpful. However, I ended up using the “Add Component (Location)” method because I needed to place Revit families (hosted by ceilings) at the center points (the previous image). The project involved approximately 1,800 fixtures, and the families were ceiling-hosted in Revit. Unfortunately, the computation took over 16 hours to complete. While I’m not entirely sure why it took so long, the process was successful in the end. For reference, I’m using Rhino 7 with Rhino.Inside.Revit.
Is there an efficient way to go about this computation?
That is a bit excessive, i’ll do some testing on a simple example to see how it compares.
