Autodesk Forge® Model Derivatives API: translate to svf2 error 406 “SVF2 is not supported for this design.”

Question

Once a file is selected, we want to translate it to svf2 format, using the forge-apis package. Here the code for the translate method:

      const derivativesApi = new DerivativesApi()
      this.urn = Buffer.from(this.itemToRender.id).toString('base64')

      const job: JobPayload = {
        input: {
          urn: this.urn
        },
        output: {
          formats: [
            {
              type: 'svf2',
              views: ['2d', '3d']
            }
          ]
        }
      }

      const translation = await derivativesApi.translate(
        job,
        {},
        autodeskClientTwo(),
        await autodeskClientTwo().authenticate()
      )

Obtaining error '406' debt to bad request.

406: "SVF2 is not supported for this design."

Any idea? Thanks in advance.

SVF2 translation is currently only supported for files in OSS buckets . So you would have to move the file into your own OSS bucket first and then kick off the translation for it.

I cannot tell you at the moment when SVF2 translation will be available for files on BIM 360 Docs
