Hello! Rhino to Grasshopper convert.

So I’ve completed a model in rhino using the tools provided, though I wish to convert the 3d model to grasshopper. The model I’ve completed isn’t made or done using grasshopper but I wish to convert to grasshopper to create a dynamic workflow with an outside software (Archicad).

Or maybe there might be a better way? I know about import/export but doing that with every change I make in the model would be a bit of a hassle

There is no automatic way of doing that. You will need to build the Grasshopper definition component by component. If there is a certain unchangeable “foundation” for your object, you can build that in Rhino and reference it in Grasshopper.
