VuMark VWS

Hello,

I am trying to use VWS API to generate instances of VuMarks, but I have a couple questions:

 

1.  I've read that I need to purchase PRO license in order to utilize VWS, can anyone confirm this? (I am trying to write up the code in c# based on the documentation for VWS but the documentation itself isn't necessarily clear and based on other discussions, I can't test this in Developer License)

2.  It doesn't seem like I need Cloud Recognition Services in order to utilize VWS, is that correct? All I would need to do is buy the PRO license, create a database type 'VuMark' in the Target Manager, and request to that database using the access key and secret key?

3.  Is there a way to provide/create additional fields inside each VuMark instances? For example, I see that the request-body in VWS has a field for 'instance-id', but I'd like to potentially add more information such as name, age, etc...

4.  Based on the documentation provided by the link provided below, the method / URL to creating an instance is "POST https://vws.vuforia.com/targets/<target-uuid>/instances". What is the <target-uuid>? Would it be the database name in Target Manager?

Thank you.

Hi,

1. Yes, Pro license is required.

2. You are correct, no Cloud Reco is required for VuMark/Generation

3. No, adding arguments to it, will probably result in a InvalidAcceptHeader error. ( elaborate below on a possible workaround)
