Production Settings
Production settings are a set of optional settings that allow you to specify different options and their usage to produce an output closer to what you’d like.
Specifying production settings
If you want to apply specific settings to the productions - that is outputs like 3MX, OBJ, etc. - you can add a file in the workspace reality data: the file prod_settings.json
has to be uploaded to /{jobId}/data/
.
Note that no check on the uploaded file is performed until the job is actually submitted, and if the parameters are not fitted to the inputs, the job will fail.
Also, if you provide this file, all the outputs should be present in the file.
That is, if you requested OBJ and FBX, both of these outputs should be present in the file, even if you only want to apply specific settings to the OBJ format, see the example.
Example of a production settings file

"ProductionSettingsExchange": [

"name": "OBJ",
"settings": {
"TexturedEnabled": false,
"DoublePrecision": true
}
},
{
"name": "FBX",
