A sample demonstrating how to view a model in a web application with the Autodesk View & Data API. This web application has a basic Node.js server and JavaScript/HTML5 client. This sample does not demonstrate how to upload a model to the Autodesk server for translation. See instructions below to prepare a model to be consumed in this sample.

    • Windows 
      copy credentials_.js credentials.js
    • OSX/Linux

  • The upload tool provides some existing models. Choose any one of them, or upload one of your own models with upload tool. The upload tool will generate a URN of the model that you need later.
  • Copy the URN which was generated in the previous step in file /www/index.js at line #18 
    var defaultUrn = '<replace with your encoded urn>';
  • In /www/index.js, at line #21, replace the entire line by the following code:
