   Hi,

   I am trying to run a code to replace the owner (“OwnerHistory” of my project.

   I want to replace the name

   I tried to run this:

   
   #ifcopenshell.api.owner.edit_person
   
   person = ifcopenshell.api.run("owner.add_person", model,
   
       identification="MM", family_name="Mllll", given_name="Mllll")
   
   ifcopenshell.api.run("owner.edit_person", model, person=person,
   
       attributes={"MiddleNames": ["M----"], "FamilyName": "M----"})
   
   
   
   #ifcopenshell.api.owner.remove_person
   
   person = ifcopenshell.api.run("owner.add_person", model,
   
       identification="$", family_name='', given_name= "DF73F")
   
   ifcopenshell.api.run("owner.remove_person", model, person=person)    
   

   What it does it just to add a new owner person but it doesnt edit or remove the previous one. I am forgetting something?

   Thanks

   Instead of adding a new person and removing / replacing the old one, why not just edit the old one in place?
