Workflows

register-reality-data
Register reality data and obtain a write-access container URL for upload.
Creates a reality data record, reads it back to confirm registration, and requests a write-access container URL for uploading the reality data files.
3 steps inputs: realityData outputs: accessUrl, realityDataId
1
createRealityData
Register the reality data record with its metadata. The returned id is used for all subsequent access and upload operations.
2
confirmRegistration
{$sourceDescriptions.realityDataApi.url}#/paths/~1reality-data~1{realityDataId}/get
Read the reality data record back to confirm the registration succeeded before requesting upload access.
3
grantWriteAccess
{$sourceDescriptions.accessApi.url}#/paths/~1reality-data~1{realityDataId}~1writeaccess/post
Request a write-access container URL for the reality data so a client can upload the underlying files.

  title: Bentley Register Reality Data and Grant Write Access
  summary: Create a reality data record, confirm it, and obtain a write-access container URL for upload.
  description: >-
    Reality data — photos, point clouds, meshes, 3D Tiles, and orthophotos — is
    registered as metadata first, then its bytes are uploaded to a write-access
    container. This workflow creates the reality data record, reads it back to
    confirm the registration, and then requests a write-access container URL that
    a client uses to upload the underlying files. Because the Reality Management
    spec reuses operationIds across paths, the read and write-access steps are
    bound by explicit operationPath. Each step spells out its request inline so
    the flow can be read and executed without opening the underlying OpenAPI
    description.
