I'm trying to render instances, bit I have no material in the render ??
Colors are on Cd attributes, how can I retrieve these colors on instances ?

Octane supports user attributes in the mesh, curves, and particles, but it doesn't support user attributes in the instances yet. In any case, the Houdini plugin has a trick to packing the Cd attribute inside an Id that later can be used to get the Cd color using an encoded texture map available in the plugin folder.
You have more details here:
