I'm stuck with connecting a conduit to a junction box in my model. How can I programmatically add a connector to the surface and connect it to a conduit connector? Documentation has no information about this issue.

In my case I have a family instance (junction box) with surface connectors and a conduit. I'm trying to connect them together in the model: private void ConnectConduitToBox(Conduit conduit, FamilyInstance box) In this case box.MEPModel.ConnectorManager.Connectors shows that there are about 8 connectors - one with type ConnectorType.End and others with ConnectorType.MasterSurface I cannot find a way to do this in the API. Maybe someone can give a hint - where to search for this info. I can provide a sample solution and a model to test this if needed Many thanks
