What it does

Workset setup shouldn't be its own project. Doing it by hand from a list, one at a time, is a slow start before a team can begin assigning elements to them. Workset Creator reads a list of workset names from an Excel file and creates them all in one run. Point it at your Excel file and run it against the active, workshared project. The setup step before a team starts assigning elements becomes one run from a list instead of typing each name in by hand; it creates the workset containers only, and assigning existing elements stays a separate step, usually done by category or selection in Revit.

Questions about this product

Does it assign elements to the new worksets?

No, it creates the workset containers only. Assigning existing elements stays a separate step, most teams do it by category or selection in Revit.

Do I need to know Dynamo?

No. It runs from Dynamo Player: point it at your Excel file, and run.
