What's New in Dynamo for Revit 3.6

Dynamo for Revit 3.6 is automatically installed in Revit as an internal add-in.

Updating Revit does not affect the previous Dynamo versions installed in the previous Revit release. Dynamo for Revit 3.6 includes the following highlights. For a full list of release notes, see Release Notes. You can find more information about major feature updates on the Dynamo blog: Core 3.6.
