I was very dissapointed as well when I found out there isnt an official datasmith for rhino 8. BUT! I decided to export my R8 file to R7 to get the datasmith connection when I noticed that after downloading datasmith for R7, there was a datasmith tab in my R8 file as well. Out of curiosity I tried if it maybe works and to my surprise it did! So Im not sure if this was supposed to work like that but for me it does. I just downloaded the datasmith for R7 and it works in R8 as well. Not sure how stable it is but for now it looks pretty good even though Im on the live sync option. So I would suggest to give that a try since the official version isnt supposed to come out till the end of 2024 which is dissapointing…
