Yeah I just tried it and it seems like the API it doesn’t give out all the fields listed in the docs. I tried getting the full file using /file/:key and then a specific node using /file/:key/nodes=125:27 endpoint. I don’t understand what’s wrong…
Solution.
Ok turns out I just needed to read the docs better. When getting a specific node by id, you also need to specify &geometry=paths query parameter. This returns all the necessary data, such as size and transform matrix. For this specific node:
