Data processing

Which usage and metadata does the SharePoint IFC WebPart process?

The SharePoint IFC WebPart processes the Azure backend metadata described in the Architecture & Data Protection documentation (for example, tenant ID and anonymised usage information). No IFC or BCF content is sent to Flinker.

Where are the SPFx assets of the SharePoint IFC Viewer hosted?

The SPFx assets of the SharePoint IFC Viewer are hosted in the Microsoft 365 CDN of your tenant. At runtime, the viewer module is additionally loaded from a Flinker Azure CDN, as documented in the Architecture & Data Protection section.

Can I view multiple IFC models at the same time?

Yes! You can load multiple models in the SharePoint IFC Viewer by adding multiple IFC files from your SharePoint library.

Can you set which users can see the IFC model in SharePoint?

Yes. You can determine which users or user groups can see the 3D or IFC model by using SharePoint permissions (for the page and the IFC file) and Microsoft security groups. If you need additional protection workflows, you can also use the Protect app to restrict access and define who can edit the model.
