I wanted to grab a list of files so I could check if I had reviewed the contents of some MEP training videos.  You can easily do this using a Windows Powershell script.

Code example:

get-childitem "T:\MEP (Revit MEP)\MEP VIDEOS" -recurse | select-object DirectoryName,Name | where { $_.DirectoryName -ne $NULL } | Export-CSV C:\Filelist.csv

Tip: Pipe fittings in #Revit #MEP need CSV's to operate. Centralize your Lookup Tables on your server to help standardize! @autodeskrevit
