This endpoint is used to create a configuration for align iModel data transformation.

Align iModel data transformation provides the capability of remapping element EClasses and their ECProperties, and performing modifications on **dynamic** ECSchemas. Dynamic schema modifications include the removal of unused ECClasses and merging multiple ECClasses into a single ECClass.

Configuration specific properties explained:

```
schemaOptimizationOptions - options that will modify ECSchemas.
    - removeUnusedClasses - if `true` ECClasses that have 0 elements will be removed from all **dynamic** ECSchemas.
    - classMergingGroups - array of ECClass merging group objects.
        - sourceECClasses - array of ECClass objects. Classes in this array will be merged into a single target ECClass. All class elements will also be remapped into the target ECClass.
            - ecClassName - ECClass name.
            - ecSchemaName - ECSchema name.
        - targetECClass - target ECClass. all sourceECClasses will be merged into this ECClass.
            - ecClassName - ECClass name.
            - ecSchemaName - ECSchema name.
dataRemappingOptions - options for data remapping.
    - additionalECSchemas - array of Bentley defined ECSchemas that will be imported into the target iModel
        - ecSchemaName - ECSchema name.
        - ecSchemaVersion - ECSchema version.
    - elementGroups - array of element group objects. Each object in the array defines a collection of elements to be mapped into a single target ECClass.
        - targetECClass - a target class for the elements selected by the `elementPropertyQuery` to be remapped into.
            - ecClassName - ECClass name.
            - ecSchemaName - ECSchema name.
        - elementPropertyQuery - ECSql query that selects element ECInstanceIds and any additional properties.
```

### Target ECClass

If `targetECClass` does not exist in the source iModel its schema must be imported using the `additionalECSchemas` property.

### Element Property query

The `elementPropertyQuery` must be a valid ECSql statement. The only requirement for the query is that it must select ECInstanceId column. Elements with these ids will be remapped into the `targetECClass`. Any additional column the query returns is treated as an additional property. Given that the additional property's column name and an ECProperty in the `targetECClass` name match, its value will be carried through and will be exported as that ECProperty's value in the target iModel. Column names for ECProperties are case insensitive.

#### Example

`ArchitecturalPhysical.Door` ECClass has 3 ECProperties defined - `OverallHeight`, `OverallWidth` and `Description`. To remap all `Generic.PhysicalObject` elements that have "door" in their UserLabel to an `ArchitecturalPhysical.Door` ECClass, a valid `elementPropertyQuery` would be:
- `SELECT ECInstanceId, 'This element was remapped from PhysicalObject' as Description, 15 as OverallHeight FROM Generic.PhysicalObject WHERE UserLabel LIKE '%door%'`

Remapped elements in the target iModel would have the following properties:
- Description: 'This element was remapped from PhysicalObject'
- OverallHeight: 15
- OverallWidth: NULL
- ...

Original properties will be carried through from the original element and any properties that do not exist in the target class will be lost.

To change already existing element property, select an already existing column. The following query will change all `BisCore.PhysicalObject` class element's user labels to 'Updated user label':
`SELECT ECInstanceId, 'Updated user label' as UserLabel FROM Generic.PhysicalObject`

In addition to exported data, the transformer will also push some additional metadata. This metadata contains:
1. `BisCore:RepositoryLink` and `BisCore:ExternalSource` elements that mark the source where the data was imported from.
1. A "Scope" `BisCore:ExternalSourceAspect` that contains Synchronization changeset metadata that is needed by the transformation service to process any later changes correctly.
1. Element provenance information (`BisCore:ExternalSourceAspects`) for elements that do not have federation guids.

**Note**: Creating a configuration does not run the transformation. To run the transformation, please see [transformations](/apis/transformations/operations/create-transformation/) reference.

This endpoint is used to create CombineIModels configuration.

Combine IModels transformation combines the source iModel with iModels provided in transformation parameters.
This is done by importing each source iModel into the target iModel sequentially. IModels are imported into the target in the same order that they were provided in (`configuration.sourceIModel`, `configuration.transformParameters.iModels[0]`, `configuration.transformParameters.iModels[1]`, etc.).

For every source iModel a `BisCore:Subject` is created in the target iModel. Each source iModel's contents are exported under their corresponding subject in the target. Subjects are named after their source iModels. Any possible naming conflicts are resolved by appending a number to the subject's name if needed (ex. `Duplicate name 2`).

Also, a new definition partition is created under new subject to persist all ViewDefinitions from source iModels, even if they have conflicting codes. This means that all ViewAttachment, ViewDefinition, ModelSelector, DisplayStyle and CategorySelector elements that are scoped under the dictionary model (id '0x10'), will be remapped under this newly created definition partition.

Element conflicts can occur when merging iModels (e.g. 2 subCategories with the same Element Code have different appearance props).
In this case, every iModel in the import chain will keep overwriting the conflicting element effectively preserving the last value that was found. This means that the last iModel in the `transformParameters.iModels` list will take precedence.
Only elements whose scoping hierarchy ultimately reaches elements with ids `0x10` (dictionaryId) and `0xe` will be able to conflict with each other (most common cases are `DefinitionElement`s). Any other elements that are ultimately scoped by the root subject will be imported under a new subject as mentioned above and cannot conflict (because their scope becomes unique).

The first Geo location that is found will be applied onto the target iModel.
For example, if merging three iModels in this order:

1. `iModel A` (not geo located)
2. `iModel B` (geo location is `BB`)
3. `iModel C` (geo location is `CC`)

Target iModel will have geo location set to `BB`.

Configuration specific properties explained:
```
iModels - list of iModels to combine the source iModel with.
 - iModelId - id of iModel
 - projectId - id of project that iModel belongs to
```
 

**Limitations**: This API does not support combining iModels that have conflicting dynamic ECSchemas.
Conflicting ECSchemas are two ECSchemas that have the same name, but have at least one difference such as:
 different aliases or any difference between EC object items ([EC schema contents](https://www.itwinjs.org/bis/ec/)).
 For example, "CustomSchema" in iModel "A" has an ECClass "MyClass", while "CustomSchema" in iModel "B" doesn't have
 an ECClass "MyClass".

In case of ECSchema conflict, transformation will fail with an error message. Those error messages
might vary depending on the conflict that was encountered. Transformation status and 
it's error message can be retrieved by sending 
[GET transformation](/apis/transformations/operations/get-transformation/) request.

In addition to exported data, the transformer will also push some additional metadata. This metadata contains:
1. `BisCore:RepositoryLink` and `BisCore:ExternalSource` elements that mark the source where the data was imported from.
1. A "Scope" `BisCore:ExternalSourceAspect` that contains Synchronization changeset metadata that is needed by the transformation service to process any later changes correctly.
1. Element provenance information (`BisCore:ExternalSourceAspects`) for elements that do not have federation guids.

**Note**: Creating a configuration does not run the transformation. To run the transformation, please see [transformations](/apis/transformations/operations/create-transformation/) reference.

This endpoint is used to create Combine Physical Models configuration.

Combine Physical Models transformation combines the source iModel's top level hierarchy physical models to a desired amount of models.
For more information see [iModel Information Hierarchy](https://www.itwinjs.org/bis/guide/data-organization/information-hierarchy/#example-information-hierarchy).

This transformation is usually leveraged to improve performance of iModel viewers. Lack of performance is noticeable when model counts reach ~1000 or even more models.
It is recommended you set the `numberOfModels` property to ~ 5-20 and test the performance of the iModel.

Configuration specific properties explained:
```
numberOfModels - specify amount of models to transform the source iModel into.
simplifyGeometry - optional parameter indicating if geometry simplification should be used (transforming parasolids to meshes). Default if not specified - false.
```
 

In addition to exported data, the transformer will also push some additional metadata. This metadata contains:
1. `BisCore:RepositoryLink` and `BisCore:ExternalSource` elements that mark the source where the data was imported from.
1. A "Scope" `BisCore:ExternalSourceAspect` that contains Synchronization changeset metadata that is needed by the transformation service to process any later changes correctly.
1. Element provenance information (`BisCore:ExternalSourceAspects`) for elements that do not have federation guids.

Use this endpoint to create CombinePhysicalModelsV2 configuration.

Combine Physical Models V2 transformation combines models in source iModel based on the EC query into target physical models with specified names. It is mandatory to only create source model queries which select ECInstanceId by using `*` or explicitly selecting that column. Also, source queries must pick only physical models that are sub-modeling physical partition.
For more information about internal iModel structure, see [Example Information Hierarchy](https://www.itwinjs.org/bis/guide/data-organization/information-hierarchy/#example-information-hierarchy).

This transformation allows to optimize iModel for better viewing performance. You can notice lack of performance when model count reaches ~1000 or even more models.
You can select ~ 5-20 models by EC query and test the performance of the iModel.

Explanation of specific properties configuration.
```
modelGroups - property specifies an array of target model names with source model queries that you want to transform. This property is required.
groupUnselectedModels - optional parameter which indicates your decision on grouping unselected models. Default value is false.
unselectedModelsGroupName - optional parameter which sets name for unselected models group. You must specify the name if groupUnselectedModels is true.
simplifyGeometry - optional parameter indicating if geometry simplification should be used (transforming parasolids to meshes). Default if not specified - false.
```
 

In addition to exported data, the transformer will also push some additional metadata. This metadata contains:
1. `BisCore:RepositoryLink` and `BisCore:ExternalSource` elements that mark the source where the data was imported from.

This endpoint is used to create a configuration for a CreateFork transformation.

CreateFork transformation is used for establishing a (*main <-> fork*) relationship between 2 iModels and for synchronizing changes in the "forward" (*main -> fork*) direction.

The first time a CreateFork transformation is performed, a link is established between source (main) and the target (fork) iModels. The target iModel must be a clone of the source iModel. You can clone the existing iModel using iModels API's endpoints:
- [Create iModel](/apis/imodels-v2/operations/create-imodel/). 
- [Clone iModel](/apis/imodels-v2/operations/clone-imodel/). 

Consecutive CreateFork transformations may be used to pull changes from the main iModel into the fork iModel.

To synchronize changes in the "reverse" (fork -> main) direction see [MergeFork configuration](/apis/transformations/operations/mergefork/).

In addition to exported data, the transformer will also push some additional metadata. This metadata contains:
1. `BisCore:RepositoryLink` and `BisCore:ExternalSource` elements that mark the source where the data was imported from.
1. A "Scope" `BisCore:ExternalSourceAspect` that contains Synchronization changeset metadata that is needed by the transformation service to process any later changes correctly.
1. Element provenance information (`BisCore:ExternalSourceAspects`) for elements that do not have federation guids.

**Limitations**: Since an iModel can contain multiple forks there is a possibility that any given fork and the main iModel end up with conflicting schemas, e.g., the same ECProperty in one schema is of type "number" and in another schema it is of type "string". Schema conflicts are not handled by the transformations service and in these cases the transformation will fail.

**Note**: Creating a configuration does not run the transformation. To run the transformation, please see [transformations](/apis/transformations/operations/create-transformation/) reference.

delete-configuration

Deletes the configuration for the given ID and returns it.

Configuration with the given ID does not exist.

---

This endpoint is used to create a configuration for filtering iModel data based on a view definition or a saved view.

A View renders geometry from one or more Models of an iModel in a web browser. A View is an element of the ViewDefinition class. For more information, see [Using Views in iTwin.js](https://www.itwinjs.org/learning/frontend/views/).

This transformation is usually leveraged to filter out unnecessary data and align an iModel to the view within a browser window.

**Limitations**: Saved views are capable of displaying elements while hiding their parent elements. 
This cannot be achieved by filtering logic because child elements cannot exist without their parent elements within an iModel. 
To workaround this misalignment between display and filtering logic, the transformations service does not filter out:

- elements that are ancestors of visible child elements
- elements that are scoping ancestors of visible elements

Such elements will remain in iModel with cleared properties, meaning that their geometries and other non mandatory properties will be deleted.

Configuration specific properties explained:

```
models - ids of enabled/visible models contained within a view definition.
hiddenModels - ids of disabled/hidden models contained within a view definition.
categories - ids of visible enabled/categories contained within a view definition.
hiddenCategories - ids of disabled/hidden categories contained within a view definition.
neverDrawn - element ids which should be left out of the target iModel.
alwaysDrawn - element ids which should be included in to the target iModel.
subCategoryOvr
    - subCategory - id of sub category 
    - invisible - geometry belonging to an invisible subCategory will be left out of target iModel
clip - data needed to create clipping. This cannot be an empty object.
    - shapes - array of shape clippings
        - points - array of number arrays describing the polygon. Each low level array contains numbers corresponding to coordinates [x, y, z]
        - trans - array of number arrays describing the transform applied to the polygon. Each low level array contains four numbers of a transform row [qx, qy, qz, ax].
        - zlow - lower bound on Z.
        - zhigh - upper bound on Z.
        - mask - `true` if this shape is a mask.
        - invisible -`true` if this shape is invisible.
    - planes - array of plane line clippings
        - invisible - `true` if this union of plane clip intersections is invisible.
        - clips - a union of plane clip set intersections
            - normal - the plane's inward normal as a number array corresponding to coordinates [x, y ,z].
            - dist - the plane's distance from the origin.
            - invisible - `true` if this plane is invisible.
            - interior - `true` if this plane is interior.
perModelCategoryVisibility - array of objects containing perModelCategoryVisibility data
    - modelId - id of model for which category override will apply.
    - categoryId - id of category for which the override will apply.
    - visible - boolean flag indicating if category is visible for the given model.
viewMode - enumerator that specifies the transformation saved view mode. It can have two values: IncludeNewContent and FilterContent.
    - IncludeNewContent includes all new content that was introduced into the iModel after the view was created.
    - FilterContent filters out all new content that was introduced into the iModel after the view was created.
```

All ids must be well-formed valid hexadecimal ids conforming with [iTwin.js specification](https://www.itwinjs.org/learning/common/id64/?term=id64).

PerModelCategoryVisibility override affects geometry on all subcategories belonging to the overridden category. That is, if the category is overridden to be visible, then geometry on all subcategories of the category will be visible, regardless of any subCategory overrides.

In addition to exported data, the transformer will also push some additional metadata. This metadata contains:
1. `BisCore:RepositoryLink` and `BisCore:ExternalSource` elements that mark the source where the data was imported from.
1. A "Scope" `BisCore:ExternalSourceAspect` that contains Synchronization changeset metadata that is needed by the transformation service to process any later changes correctly.
1. Element provenance information (`BisCore:ExternalSourceAspects`) for elements that do not have federation guids.

This endpoint is used to create a configuration for filtering iModel data based on an ECSql query.

ECSQL is a text-based command language for CRUD (create, read, update, delete) operations against the business data in an iModel or ECDb file. For more information, samples and tutorials see [ECSQL](https://www.itwinjs.org/learning/ecsql/).

Configuration specific properties explained:

```
ecSql - ECSql query that only selects ECInstanceIds of elements that the iModel will be filtered by.
inclusive - 'false' when all elements selected by ecSql query are filtered out, 'true' when all physical elements that are not selected by ecSql query are filtered out. By default it is 'false'.
```

This endpoint is used to create a configuration for filtering out geometry entries based on their sub-category names.

A SubCategory is a subdivision of a Category. SubCategories allow elements in iModel to have multiple pieces of geometry that can be independently visible and styled (color, linesStyle, transparency, etc.). For more information, see [SubCategories](https://www.itwinjs.org/bis/intro/categories/#subcategories).

FilterSubCategories transformation is filtering out all of the data associated to subCategoryNames specified for the transformation.

Configuration specific properties explained:

```
subCategoryNames - array of sub category names.
```
 

In addition to exported data, the transformer will also push some additional metadata. This metadata contains:
1. `BisCore:RepositoryLink` and `BisCore:ExternalSource` elements that mark the source where the data was imported from.
1. A "Scope" `BisCore:ExternalSourceAspect` that contains Synchronization changeset metadata that is needed by the transformation service to process any later changes correctly.
1. Element provenance information (`BisCore:ExternalSourceAspects`) for elements that do not have federation guids.

**Note**: Creating a configuration does not run the transformation. To run the transformation, please see [transformations](/apis/transformations/operations/create-transformation/) reference.

### 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](https://developer.bentley.com/apis/overview/authorization/) page.

### Authorization

You must have `imodels_write` assigned at the target project level and `imodels_read` assigned at the source project level within related [configuration](/apis/transformations/operations/get-configuration/). If permissions at the project level are not configured, then you must have same assigned at the iModel level.

Alternatively, you must be an Organization Administrator for the Organization that owns a given project 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.

This endpoint is used to query a list of configuration entities.

To get full configuration entities in a list set prefer header to `return=representation`.

**Note:** when `return=representation` is used, the type on entities returned in `configurations` array is a union of different configuration types. Configuration type is denoted by `transformType` property. API consumers should expect that new configuration types will added in the future. New configurations may have a different schema than the ones that currently exist so array items should be deserialized based on `transformType`.

get-configuration

---

This endpoint is used to create the Group And Map configuration.

The Group And Map transformation enables the creation of new custom EC schemas and is capable of remapping already existing elements to the new EC classes with new EC properties. The custom schema is constructed using grouping and mapping data. It is your responsibility to create a valid mapping for the source iModel through [the Reporting API](/apis/insights/) before starting the transformation. To learn more about EC schemas and classes, please see [Base Infrastructure Schemas](https://www.itwinjs.org/bis/).

These are the logical relations from [grouping and mapping](/apis/insights/operations/create-mapping/) data to EC schema:
```
Mapping -> EC schema
Group -> EC class
GroupProperty -> EC property
```

After the transformation all elements that were *selected* with the group query will be remapped to the corresponding EC class. These elements will also have all the new EC properties inserted. The newly inserted EC properties' values will be populated with the help of 'ecProperties' field taken from the respective GroupProperty which you configured beforehand.

POST configuration specific properties explained:
```
mappingId - source iModel mapping id.
groupOverrides - list of overrides for each group.
 - groupId - id of mapping group.
 - baseClass - base EC class that will be applied for elements selected by group.
 - ecSchemaName - EC schema name.
 - ecClassName - EC class name.
additionalEcSchemas - list of additional EC schemas that will be added to target iModel.
 - ecSchemaName - EC schema name.
 - ecSchemaVersion - EC schema version.
```
 

In addition to exported data, the transformer will also push some additional metadata. This metadata contains:
1. `BisCore:RepositoryLink` and `BisCore:ExternalSource` elements that mark the source where the data was imported from.
1. A "Scope" `BisCore:ExternalSourceAspect` that contains Synchronization changeset metadata that is needed by the transformation service to process any later changes correctly.

This endpoint is used to create a configuration for an ImportIModel transformation.

Import iModel transformation imports an iModel from source project to specified target.

Multiple iModels may be imported into the same target iModel, effectively combining them.

Element conflicts can occur when importing an iModel. In this case, elements of the iModel being imported overwrite the target elements. Only elements whose scoping hierarchy ultimately reaches elements with ids `0x10` (dictionaryId) and `0xe` will be able to conflict with each other (most common cases are `DefinitionElement`s).

In addition to exported data, the transformer will also push some additional metadata. This metadata contains:
1. `BisCore:RepositoryLink` and `BisCore:ExternalSource` elements that mark the source where the data was imported from.
1. A "Scope" `BisCore:ExternalSourceAspect` that contains Synchronization changeset metadata that is needed by the transformation service to process any later changes correctly.

importimodel

---

This endpoint is used to create a configuration for MergeFork transformation.

MergeFork transformation is used for synchronizing changes in the "reverse" (*fork -> main*) direction. Forked iModel must be created using one of
[CreateFork](/apis/transformations/operations/createfork), [FilterIModel](/apis/transformations/operations/filterimodel), [FilterSubCategories](/apis/transformations/operations/filtersubcategories), [FilterByViewDefinition](/apis/transformations/operations/filterbyviewdefinition) transformations and it must have at least one new changeset with modifications for merging to succeed.

Source and target (project & iModel) properties mark the data flow direction. That said MergeFork configuration's sourceProjectId/IModelId and targetProjectId/IModelId properties must be switched places as compared to the configuration that was used to fork the iModel.

```json
{
 "sourceProjectId": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000", // forked iModel's project id
 "sourceIModelId": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000", // forked iModel's id
 "targetProjectId": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000", // main iModel's project id
 "targetIModelId": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000", // main iModel's id
 "transformParameters": {
 "configurationId": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000" // id of a configuration that was used to create the fork
 }
```

Explanation of specific properties configuration.
```
configurationId - required property that specifies configuration id, which was used to fork the main iModel.
```
 

Running consecutive transformations for this configuration will keep synchronizing newly added changes from fork iModel back into the main iModel.

In addition to exported data, the transformer will also push some additional metadata. This metadata contains:
1. `BisCore:RepositoryLink` and `BisCore:ExternalSource` elements that mark the source where the data was imported from.
1. A "Scope" `BisCore:ExternalSourceAspect` that contains Synchronization changeset metadata that is needed by the transformation service to process any later changes correctly.
1. Element provenance information (`BisCore:ExternalSourceAspects`) for elements that do not have federation guids.

Differently from other transformation types, MergeFork transformation synchronizes changes in a "reverse" direction. This means that the metadata will be pushed to the source (fork) iModel instead of the target iModel.

**Limitations**: Since an iModel can contain multiple forks there is a possibility that any given fork and the main iModel end up with conflicting schemas, e.g., the same ECProperty in one schema is of type "number" and in another schema it is of type "string". Schema conflicts are not handled by the transformations service and in these cases the transformation will fail.

**Note**: Creating a configuration does not run the transformation. To run the transformation, please see [transformations](/apis/transformations/operations/create-transformation/) reference.

This endpoint is used to create a configuration for a PopulateFederationGuids transformation.

Populate Federation Guids transformation creates a new [`FederationGuid`](https://www.itwinjs.org/bis/guide/fundamentals/federationguids/) property value on elements that currently have `FederationGuid` value set to `null`.

This transformation is useful in [iModel Forking](https://developer.bentley.com/apis/imodels-v2/operations/fork-imodel/) scenarios when Fork creation in iModels API [fails with `sourceIsMissingFederationGuids` state](https://developer.bentley.com/apis/imodels-v2/operations/fork-imodel/#sourceismissingfederationguidsstate). After Populate Federation Guids transformation is run on the source iModel subsequent "Create Fork" operations will succeed.

**Note**: Creating a configuration does not run the transformation. To run the transformation, please see [transformations](/apis/transformations/operations/create-transformation/) reference.

### Authentication

Requires `Authorization` header with valid Bearer token for scope `itwin-platform`.

populatefederationguids

---

This endpoint is used to run the transformation based on an already created configuration. Sending a post request will submit a background processing job that is able to report progress back to the same transformation instance that you can query by the transformation ID.

First run of the transformation will process the whole source iModel and push data to the target iModel. 
Only one transformation job can run on the same target iModel at the same time.
Consecutively submitted jobs for the same configurationId will only process changes to the source iModel.

### Transformation status
Transformation `status` parameter provides information about the current status of a transformation. The status can have one of the following values:

- `Created` - this status is assigned when the transformation is created, but background job has not started yet. Once the background job is started, initialization begins.

- `Initializing` - a transformation in the `Initializing` status means that the background job has been started and is preparing to run the transformation. This process involves downloading all the necessary iModels and setting up other parameters as required by the transformation.

- `Started` - when the transformation background job starts processing the iModel elements based on the transformation configuration, the status changes to `Started`. You can monitor the progress of the transformation during this stage by tracking the count of processed elements. This count allows you to estimate when the transformation might finish.

- `Succeeded` - upon successful completion of the transformation, the status is set to `Succeeded`. This means all iModel elements have been processed as per the transformation configuration without any errors.

- `Failed` - if an error occurs during the transformation process (while in the `Initializing` or `Started` statuses), the status changes to `Failed`. This indicates that the transformation has ended prematurely and would leave the target iModel in an invalid state if any intermediate changes were pushed. If the transformation is in an invalid state, it is necessary to use a new target iModel in order to proceed with further transformations.

- `Aborted` - a transformation is labeled as `Aborted` when it is manually cancelled by the user. Note that a transformation cannot be cancelled if it has already finished (its status is either `Failed` or `Succeeded`).

### 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](https://developer.bentley.com/apis/overview/authorization/) page.

### Authorization

You must have `imodels_write` assigned at the target project level and `imodels_read` assigned at the source project level within related [configuration](/apis/transformations/operations/get-configuration/). If permissions at the project level are not configured, then you must have same assigned at the iModel level.

Alternatively, you must be an Organization Administrator for the Organization that owns a given project 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.

### Rate limits

All iTwin Platform API operations have a rate limit. For more documentation on that visit [Rate limits and quotas](https://developer.bentley.com/apis/overview/rate-limits/) page.

### Transformation Element Limiting

When you run a transformation with the "Try it out" function, you are limited to transforming iModels with up to 1000 entities, which includes elements and relationships. For more information about entities, see [Element Fundamentals](https://www.itwinjs.org/bis/guide/fundamentals/element-fundamentals/) and [Relationship Fundamentals](https://www.itwinjs.org/bis/guide/fundamentals/relationship-fundamentals/). If an iModel has more than 1000 entities, transformation will not succeed. To transform iModels without any limits, please generate authorization for a different client and call this endpoint directly or add the newly generated authorization value to a `Authorization` field. For more information about using your own client, see [Authorize Service](https://developer.bentley.com/tutorials/authorize-service).

get-all-transformations

Specify a particular transformation status that you wish to query on.

Status

The OrderBy query option allows clients to request ascending or descending using `_desc` order of the returned collection by one of the item properties. We support sorting by every property that is present in response body. When `_desc` keyword is not specified the collection is sorted in ascending order. To sort the collection in descending order provide `_desc` keyword e.g.: `OrderBy=finishedDateTime_desc`.

OrderBy

The `$top` query option requests the number of items in the queried collection to be included in the result. E.g. to return only first collection item provide the following query: `$top=1`. When `$top` parameter is not provided default is set to 100. `$top` value cannot exceed 1000.

Returns transformations for the given configuration ID. If prefer header is not set, API will treat it as `return=minimal`.
