When creating new facility user can decide where data for the facility will be stored – in addition to default location (US) user can now create facility on regional data center in Europe.
Once facility is created the storage location cannot be changed.
Impact on the API
Is there any impact when it comes to the API? There is now option to specify region when using endpoints that interact with facility data. This is implemented similar to other services – we use optional Region header. Currently supported values are:
US - used by default when header is missing. Of course it’s also possible to specify it explicitly.
EMEA – used when working with data store on data center in Europe.
For example, if we want to query facilities stored on European data canter we add Region header:
curl -L "https://developer.api.autodesk.com/tandem/v1/groups/YOUR_GROUP_ID/twins" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
-H "Region: EMEA"
Online documentation was also updated.
