Upgrade Notes

Integration of Streetview and Matterport into Igloo Core Service

The Streetview and Matterport integrations are now included within the igloo-core-service. This means there is no longer a need for separate installations for these services.

We have moved away from using multiple ports for different integrations. Both Streetview and Matterport can now be accessed through a single port, port 800, on the igloo-core-service.

The updated URLs for accessing these services are e.g.

  • Streetview Control: http://localhost:800/streetview/control/

  • Matterport Control: http://localhost:800/matterport/control/

For a full list of updated URLs, refer to:

Automatic Migration with ICE 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/

API Breaking changes

  • load session message

session/load?id=

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.

Sessions can still be loaded using the database ID using the following

session/load?databaseId=10

Known Issues

  • WebView audio: after prolonged usage the audio output from a WebView layer can sometimes stop outputting under certain hardware configurations

  • No labels
