Mass generating characters with different features, is it possible?

Hope everyone is doing well :)

So I'm trying to mass generate characters with different features, yet I'm not sure if Python scripting could be of benefit to this idea.
Will Python be able to recognize certain names and functions etc. from CC3?
For example, if I would want to choose a particular object as a feature of the body, for instance a beard, could I code it into Python so that the script would choose that particular beard?
Also, would I be able to code so that it chooses a random/specific color as well?

There is no python API available, or even planned for Character Creator according to several posts from Reallusion product staff.

Thanks for the answer!
So this has no value whatsoever? (Image attached)
Is there perhaps some other programming language which can be utilized or are we doomed with restrictions forever?

It lets you put your Python code into CC3 by selecting the .py file. I just checked, the API is the same as iClone's, so pretty much anyone now can create plugins for CC3.
It appeared with the recent update, so it could be just a mistake from one of the devs that forgot to remove it after debugging, or they plan to make it public similar to iClone.

Eric(RL) stated in this post 2 weeks ago that the Python API would be staying in iClone. Perhaps the inclusion in the last update is indeed just an oversight. :Whistling:

Possibly, but Victor.Soupday has already provided a script to load characters from blender into CC3 so maybe it is suppose to be there?
