Extract Metadata from a Source File
About this walkthrough
When you translate a Model into the SVF2 format, the translation process extracts model views (Viewables) so that they can be displayed with the Viewer Library. Additionally, the translation process extracts metadata about the objects in the design. This walkthrough demonstrates how to access the metadata that was extracted. This walkthrough uses a Revit model, because Revit models contain a rich set of metadata.
For more information about metadata that can be extracted from a manifest, and their significance, see the section on Metadata, under API Basics.

We also provide a Postman Collection containing the HTTP requests used in this walkthrough. On the Postman Collection, requests are grouped by task. The group has the same name as the corresponding task in this walkthrough.

Similarly, requests are named such that you can easily match a Step in this walkthrough with the corresponding HTTP request in the Postman Collection.

The Postman Collection is hosted in a GitHub repository, and is accompanied by a set of instructions.
