timeliner | All your digital life on a single timeline

Here has some points you should pay attention to:

• To get collection URL, you need use the variable System.TeamFoundationCollectionUri.
• You can use env:xxxx to call our Azure devops predefined variables if you would like to call these predefined variables directly in ps1 file.
• Please don't convert $(System.AccessToken) to a Base64 string. This Base64 conversion is just available for PAT.
• Unless necessary, do not use dots in variable names. Because for Azure devops, we will treat it as hierarchical of the JSON file. So here you'd better use another variable name that do not has any special characters in it. As example, the name I specified is SigningStatus.

I made some changes and re-constructed your powershell script. Now everything goes as expected. Refer to below script:

currentUser is null because you didn't initialize the class. For example:

Unfortunately, the Timeliner properties are not extracted by Forge service (which BIM 360 is running on), and also some other properties. This blog tells in detail: https://forge.autodesk.com/blog/updates-navisworks-nwd-translation-engine-coming

Currently, we do have an advanced option to override default configurations to tell NWD/NWC translator if it needs to translate Timeliner properties. BUT, this option is about Forge Model Derivative API ONLY.

While in BIM360 Docs UI, there is no any plan to expose options to let users override default configurations when they upload files. So for now, users uploading NWD/NWC files to BIM 360 Docs will lose Timeliner properties. Consequently, you will have to open those files inside Navisworks to view Timeliner data or take advantage of the Navisworks API to extract the data inside Navisworks. We apologize for the inconvenience.

However, we have legged a wish BIMPLT-698 with BIM360 engineering team to evaluate the possibility of adding options for end-user when they upload the model files. You're welcome to track the updates in the future via sending an email quoting this wish id to the Forge support channel.

Note. Triggering your own translation job to override your desired translation configurations via Forge Model Derivative API on files uploaded to BIM360 will charge you for cloud credits. You will have to consider the extra costs if you want to do so, and see here for the pricing: https://forge.autodesk.com/pricing

Update your code

The useRef() hook returns a reference to an object, with the current property. The current property is the actual value useRef points to.

To use the reference, just set it on the element:
