    Autodesk.Viewing.Document

    new Document(dataJSON,path,acmsession)

    Core model data class for all items and collections.

    It allows the client to load the model data from the cloud, it gives access to the root and provides a method for finding elements by id.

    Typically, you load the document from the Viewing Service, parse it for the required content (for example, 3d geometries), then pass this on to the viewer to display. You can also get some information about the document, such as the number of views it contains and its thumbnail image.

    You can view the JSON structure of a Document object by requesting it from the Model Derivative endpoints.
