You can look up how to loop over files in a .bat on SO. You would pass the file to blender by adding -- path\to\file.fbx to the cmdline args, and in the .py script you'd get it with sys.argv[sys.argv.index("--")+1].

| Sep 8, 2020 at 10:02 | comment | added | JBH | I’ll give that a go. however i’m curious to know how to do the loop in the bat file, how might that work? | |

Try bpy.ops.object.select_all(action='SELECT') ; bpy.ops.object.delete(use_global=False) to clear the scene. But it might be better to do the loop in the .bat file and pass just one file to be converted to the .py script at a time.

| Sep 8, 2020 at 9:08 | comment | added | JBH | what happens is that the same geometry is in all the exported .ifc files. i thought if i added bpy.ops.scene.new(type='EMPTY') after the file export in the same For loop it would clear the scene and move onto the next fbx file this didn't work. | |
| Sep 8, 2020 at 8:23 | comment | added | scurest | Not sure I understand, but each export will have all the previous FBXs included in the scene. Did you want to clear the scene at the beginning of the loop? | |
