Guys,
Is it possible to link the channels and return the values from a particular node of the original houdini file whose model we are using as a .bgeo file in the current houdini file. For example i want to return the value in my rotate channel of a transform node in the current houdini file from a node of the .bgeo file which i am using here in this houdini file too. looking forward for your advice.

I'm not sure to understand what you are looking for and what you did but bgeo files contain only geometry data. So if you rotate a geometry and write a bgeo file, the rotation data is lost in the bgeo.

But you can create a detail attribute to geometry to store the info of what you want, then read this attribute after load the bgeo file.
