Point Clouds

Load Point Clouds using the loadModel﻿ method. Point Clouds are stored in an E57/LAS file.
Example
﻿
1. Create a download token
Request a download token﻿ for the asset stored in the documents section providing the format application/vnd.bimsync.pointcloud.
Shell
curl --request POST \
  --url 'https://api.catenda.com/v2/projects/{PROJECT_ID}/libraries/{LIBRARY_ID}/items/{DOCUMENT_ID}/token?format=application/vnd.bimsync.pointcloud' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'
curl --request POST \
  --url 'https://api.catenda.com/v2/projects/{PROJECT_ID}/libraries/{LIBRARY_ID}/items/{DOCUMENT_ID}/token?format=application/vnd.bimsync.pointcloud' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'
﻿
2. Use the token to load the model
Invoke the loadModel method with the asset URL and the model type.
JS
const options = { modelType: "point-cloud" };
const url = "https://api.catenda.com/v2/download?token={TOKEN}";

viewer3d.loadModel(url, options);
const options = { modelType: "point-cloud" };
const url = "https://api.catenda.com/v2/download?token={TOKEN}";

viewer3d.loadModel(url, options);
