I am currently working with Forge RCDB and MongoDB. I have a .dwf model (made with Revit), that i exported in a .svf file. I managed to display the model in the viewer, as shown in forge examples (https://forge-rcdb.autodesk.io/database?id=583ec7efebfb320e3cef26a5 for example).
Now, i also want to display properties (length, area, volume...). I downloaded some forge examples, and it seemes that the properties are saved in .json.gz files. With the data i work on, i'm not sure i can export the properties in a .json file. But i can export it as a .gbXML and ODBC database.
My question is : how exactly are the property files and the model being linked ? Is it even possible with an object from Revit ?
Thanks for the answer, here is what I did at the end :
I kept the .rvt model and converted it into .svf with https://extract.autodesk.io . In the exported folder, there are several .json.gz files, which contains the properties (objects.attrs.json.gz,objects_ids.json.gz, ...). They are read automatically when displaying the model i think, because i didn't do anything special about them. Now when i use Forge React Boiler and Forge RCDB, I can display my models and their properties.
When i asked my question i was using a model without properties. I chose another one with properties and now it works fine.
