## Prepare a File for the Viewer
To prepare a file for the online viewer, first get an access token with the `data:read` and `data:write` scopes.
```c
resp <- getToken(id = Sys.getenv("client_id"), secret = Sys.getenv("client_secret"),
scope = "data:read data:write")
myToken <- resp$content$access_token
```
Nex, encode the urn using the `jsonlite::base64_enc()` function.
```c
myEncodedUrn <- jsonlite::base64_enc(myUrn)
```
Then, translate the file into SVF format:
```c
resp <- translateSvf(urn = myEncodedUrn, token = myToken)
```
To check the status of the translation process:
```c
resp <- checkFile(urn = myEncodedUrn, token = myToken)
resp
```
Finally, embed the urn of the file in the viewer, which is described in the **Viewer** section.
## Extract Data from a File
To extract data from a file, follow the steps in the previous section for getting a token with the `data:read` and `data:write` scopes, encoding the `urn` of the file using the `jsonlite::base64_enc()` function, and translating the file into SVF format using the `translateSvf()` function. Next, retrieve metadata for a file using the `getMetadata()` function, which returns an object with the `type`, `name`, and `guid` of the file. Note the `guid` and store it in `.Renviron`.
```c
resp <- getMetadata(urn = myEncodedUrn, token = myToken)
myGuid <- resp$content$data$metadata[[1]]$guid
```
To get the object tree of a model, use the `getObjectTree()` function.
```c
resp <- getObjectTree(guid = myGuid, urn = myEncodedUrn, token = myToken)
resp
```
To extract data from the model, use the `getData()` function.
```c
resp <- getData(guid = myGuid, urn = myEncodedUrn, token = myToken)
```
# Viewer
AutoDesk provides a WebGL-based viewer for rendering 2D and 3D models. To use the viewer, make sure to first follow the instructions in **Prepare a File for the Viewer** above. Then simply pass the `urn` of the file and the `token` to the `viewer3D()` function:
```c
viewer3D(urn = myEncodedUrn, token = myToken)
```
The viewer can also be embedded in Shiny applications, interactive R markdown documents, and other web pages thanks to the Shiny Modules framework. Here is a simple example of a Shiny app and the `viewerUI()` function:
```c
ui <- function(request) {
shiny::fluidPage(
viewerUI("pg", myEncodedUrn, myToken)
)
}
server <- function(input, output, session) {
}
shiny::shinyApp(ui, server)
```
