Use URL parameters in scenes

Define a viewpoint

To define a viewpoint in the URL, use the &viewpoint=cam:<coordinates> parameter.

In this example, the &viewpoint=cam:<coordinates> parameter opens the scene item b04e44630e4d4f788b4fec3f2d8c9ace at the coordinates of the Inner Alster Lake in Hamburg, Germany.

Note:

If you don't have the coordinates of the viewpoint in the scene, you can obtain them by clicking the Share button Share, unchecking the Short link box, and copying the link.

Open a slide

To open a scene to a specific slide, add the #<slide-number> parameter.

In this example, the #3 parameter opens the scene item 6c7a0d4f03d2444fb1f4fa9e85a96044 to the Hafenviertel slide in Linz, Austria, the third slide in the scene.

Open a service by URL

If you have a URL of a service that you want to open directly in a scene, use the ?url=<service> parameter.

In this example, the ?url=<service> parameter opens a scene that loads the Portland, Oregon, building service:

Embed minimal Scene Viewer UI

When you want to embed a scene in a third-party app, you may want a minimal Scene Viewer UI to not complicate the web page. To do this, add the &ui=min parameter.

In this example, the &ui=min parameter opens the Vancouver, Canada, scene in Scene Viewer with minimal UI:

Use multiple parameters

To include more than one parameter, use an ampersand (&) to separate the parameters.

In this example, the & character separates the url= and the viewpoint=cam: parameters:
