Physna API

Physna API gives you access to powerful tools that unlock actionable insights on your 3D data. Physna provides a secure cloud based platform for your 3D models with industry leading geometric search and machine learning capabilities. The Physna platform allows developers to build next-generation 3D data workflows that solve real world problems.

Once models are uploaded into Physna’s system and processed using geometric indexing and machine learning algorithms, the full set of Physna geometric matching, search and analysis tools are available via API calls.

The Physna API is organized around REST. It has resource oriented URLs, accepts JSON request bodies, returns JSON responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and HTTP request methods.
