    Below is a sample code that does that. It is assuming that the pre-existing csv file (file called mythick.csv in D drive) has one column with the surface names in Spaceclaim and one with their thicknesses.

    Note: for the below to work we need to have insert selection set to index.

    # Python Script, API Version = V22

import csv

th=[]

names=[]

with open('D:\mythick.csv', 'rb') as f:

    reader = csv.reader(f)

    for row in reader:

        th.append(row[1])

        names.append(row[0])

allBodies = GetRootPart().GetAllBodies()

i=0

for name in names:

    for body in allBodies:

        if body.GetName()==name:

            print(body.GetName())

            result = Midsurface.Convert(BodySelection.Create(body), MM(float(th[i])))

    i=i+1
