Please does anyone know where I can get a python script that can do a batch import of CAD files into a Geodatabase.

I have one I wrote here, but it is only able to import one CAD file at a time. It imports the CAD files and splits it into feature classes and stores it in the geodatabase via the feature dataset. It works perfectly well but I need to loop the script to search through a given folder for all the cardfiles in it and import them under different feature datasets and put all the datasets into one geodatabase.

# Description: Create a feature dataset

# Set local variables

output_dataset_name = "cadresults"
reference_scale = "1500"
spatial_reference = "Nad_1983_10TM"

# Create a FileGDB for the fds
arcpy.CreateFileGDB_management("C:/data1", "cadfile.gdb")

# Execute CreateFeaturedataset 
arcpy.CreateFileGDB_management("C:/data", "cadfile.gdb")
arcpy.CADToGeodatabase_conversion(input_cad_dataset, output_gdb_path, output_dataset_name, reference_scale)

Hello everyone, Please does anyone know where I can get a python script that can do a batch import of CAD files into a Geodatabase.

I have one I wrote here, but it is only able to import one CAD file at a time. It imports the CAD files and split it into feature classes and stores it in the geodatabase via the feature dataset. It works perfectly well but I need to loop the script to search through a given folder for all the cardfiles in it and import them under different feature datasets and put all the datasets into one geodatabase..
