Download API definition:
GET https://api.bentley.com/imodels/{id}/locks[?$skip][&$top][&briefcaseId][&lockLevel]

Queries locks of the iModel. Lock - the right to modify a specific type of data within the iModel. For more information on Locks see working with Locks via iTwin.js client libraries.

Note: Lock types have been removed for this API and should be ignored.

Paging

Page size refers to total size of returned objectIds throughout all returned instances. If several Lock instances are returned that does not necessarily mean that instance is complete and more objectIds might be returned for that specific instance in a different page.

Authentication

Requires Authorization header with valid Bearer token for scope itwin-platform.

For more documentation on authorization and how to get access token visit OAUTH2 Authorization page.

Authorization

User must have imodels_webview permission assigned at the iModel level and at least imodels_webview permission assigned at the iTwin level. If permissions at the iModel level are not configured, then user must have imodels_webview permission assigned at the iTwin level.

Alternatively the user should be an Organization Administrator for the Organization that owns a given iTwin the iModel belongs to.

An Organization Administrator must have at least one of the following roles assigned in User Management: Account Administrator, Co-Administrator, or CONNECT Services Administrator. For more information about User Management please visit our Bentley Communities Licensing, Cloud, and Web Services wiki page.

Rate limits

All iTwin Platform API operations have a rate limit. For more documentation on that visit Rate limits and quotas page.
