HtoA Create AOV with python?

[Max_Steven]

Hello I can see there are posts to create aov with python in maya and max.

Anyone has any idea how to do it in houdini?

I just need some hint and few lines of example

Thank you for your time

Maybe this is too late to help you but I'm working on the same issue right now and I can point you in the right direction.

The Arnold rop in Houdini uses the "multiparm" parameter folder type. If you look into interacting with houdini multiparmeter with python you should find your answer.

Yeah I had to work with the multiparm too after it seems like no python commands exist for HtoA—a massive shame as I really hate multiparm.

I had asked the same question awhile back here:
