  • This is a really poorly formulated question. Please attach some code that you tried and perhaps re-write the question. I cannot make out what you asking for. Is it how to copy element from one file to another? Is it how to load a family into a model? – konrad Oct 13 '17 at 13:46

The element id will always be different in the second file.

You need to create a new instance of the element type using the appropriate

Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document.NewFamilyInstance(...)

depending on the type of instance you are trying to create.
