Retrieves the container's link for an instance of [reality data](https://www.itwinjs.org/learning/glossary/#realitydata).

A container is where the reality data itself (a point cloud, a mesh, a collection of images, ...) is stored.

The container's link will allow you to upload/download data directly to this container.

A [reality data](https://www.itwinjs.org/learning/glossary/#realitydata) is always associated to exactly one container.

The `projectId` parameter is optional, but it is preferable to provide it, because the permissions used to access the container are determined from the project. With no project specified, the operation can succeed in some cases (e.g. the user is the reality data's owner), but we recommend to provide a `projectId`.

In future API versions, containers could be hosted in in different cloud providers, but for now, only Azure cloud is supported.

To store or retrieve data from a container, refer to the [Azure Blob Storage documentation](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/).

### Authentication

Requires `Authorization` header with valid Bearer token for scope `realitydata:read`.

Invalid request to get the container of a reality data. Please ensure that the request is valid.

Creates a [reality data](https://www.itwinjs.org/learning/glossary/#realitydata).

As shown in the request section below, you must provide a request body. 

You MUST provide the `displayName`, `classification` and `type` properties. 

Valid values for the `classification` property are: `Terrain`, `Imagery`, `Pinned`, `Model`, `Undefined`. For more details on each value, see [Reality Data Properties](https://developer.bentley.com/apis/reality-data/rd-details/) in documentation.

We recommend specifying a `projectId` in the request body, as it is used to choose the data center where the reality data is stored (the same as the project). If no `projectId` can be provided, the default data center of the organization is selected.

After creation, the reality data will be associated to the specified project.

### Authentication

Requires `Authorization` header with valid Bearer token for scope `realitydata:modify`.

For more documentation on authorization and how to get access token visit [OAUTH2 Authorization](https://developer.bentley.com/apis/overview/authorization/) page.

### Authorization

User must be an Organization Administrator for the Organization that owns a given Project or have `{permission}` permission assigned at the Project level.

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](https://communities.bentley.com/communities/other_communities/licensing_cloud_and_web_services/w/wiki/50711/user-management-2-0) wiki page.

Deletes a [reality data](https://www.itwinjs.org/learning/glossary/#realitydata).

To delete a reality data, it must be associated to only one (or zero) project. If it has more associated projects, first [dissociate](https://developer.bentley.com/apis/reality-data/operations/dissociate-from-project/) the projects.

### Authentication

Requires `Authorization` header with valid Bearer token for scope `realitydata:modify`.

Invalid request to delete reality data. Please ensure that the request is valid.

Retrieves a list of [reality data](https://www.itwinjs.org/learning/glossary/#realitydata) instances belonging to the specified project.

The retrieved instances are those for which you have the required access rights, relative to the specified project. 

The `projectId` is optional. If you don't provide it, the retrieved [reality data](https://www.itwinjs.org/learning/glossary/#realitydata) instances will be relative to general access rights provided by your organization. These rights are usually more restrictive, so we recommend using the `projectId` parameter for exhaustive results.

### Notes

The `Prefer` header can be used to specify how much result metadata is desired by the client. The `Prefer` request header field is used to indicate that particular server behaviors are preferred by the client but are not required for successful completion of the request.

This operation supports `"return=representation"` and `"return=minimal"` preferences.

The `"return=representation"` preference indicates that the client prefers that the server include an entity representing the current state of the resource in the response to a successful request, i.e., all properties are included in the response.
The `"return=minimal"` preference indicates that the client wishes the server to return only a minimal response to a successful request. This is the default preference if `Prefer` header is not specified.

### Authentication

Requires `Authorization` header with valid Bearer token for scope `realitydata:read`.

get-all-reality-data

Id of project. The operation gets all reality data in this project.

Parameter that enables continuing to the next page of the previous paged query. This must be passed exactly as it is in the response body's _links.next property. If this is specified and $top is omitted, the next page will be the same size as the previous page.

continuationToken

$top

Extent of the area to search, delimited by southwest and northeast coordinates. Extent values are specified in this format: SouthwestCorner_Longitude, SouthwestCorner_Latitude, NortheastCorner_Longitude, NortheastCorner_Latitude. E.g. to get all reality data in an area around Exton, PA, provide the following extent parameter: extent=-75.637679,40.032871,-75.633647,40.032771

extent

Retrieves the metadata of a [reality data](https://www.itwinjs.org/learning/glossary/#realitydata).

The `projectId` parameter is optional, but it is preferable to provide it, because the permissions used to access the collection of reality data are determined from the project. With no project specified, the desired reality data can be retrieved (e.g. the caller is the owner), but it's more likely to get the expected result if you provide the `projectId`.

### Authentication

With no project specified, it may be possible to modify the reality data (e.g. the caller is the owner), but more permissions may be granted when the `projectId` is provided.
