Retrieves the container's link with write access for an instance of reality data.
A container is where the reality data itself (a point cloud, a mesh, a collection of images, …) is stored.
The container's link will allow you to upload/download data directly to this container.
A reality data is always associated to exactly one container.
The iTwinId
parameter is optional, but it is preferable to provide it, because the permissions used to access the container are determined from the iTwin. With no iTwin specified, the operation can succeed in some cases (e.g. the user is the reality data's owner), but we recommend to provide a iTwinId
.
In future API versions, containers could be hosted in in different cloud providers, but for now, only Azure cloud is supported.
To store or retrieve data from a container, refer to the Azure Blob Storage documentation.
