1.3 Installation

The installation of ICE 1.3 includes an automatic migration process to help with the transition to the updated system. This migration includes:

  • Service Removal: The standalone Streetview and Matterport services will be removed. No settings are deleted during this process.

  • API Key Migration: If existing API keys for Streetview and Matterport are found, they will be transferred to the igloo-core-service configuration file located at C:\igloo\igloo-core-service\config.json.

  • Favorites: Favorites, along with Streetview and Matterport ICE sessions, will be updated to reflect the new port 800 access point. This ensures all your saved data remains intact and easily accessible under the new system.

  • ICE sessions: any relevant URL’s within the ICE database are updated to use the new 800 port

  • Redirects for Old URLs: old URLs (such as http://localhost:9070/control/) will automatically redirect to the new corresponding igloo-core-service URLs, in this case http://localhost:800/streetview/control/

Previously the id parameter was the database ID of the session within ICE. In ICE 1.3 this has been changed such that the id expects the UUID of the session. This can be found via the Edit Session window.
