Steps
Obtain API credentials for the PIX4Dengine Cloud API (cloud.pix4d.com)
POST to /project/api/v3/projects/ to create a new project
Upload and register the source images against the created project before requesting processing
POST to /project/api/v3/projects/{id}/start_processing/ to begin the pipeline, optionally passing processing options in the same payload
Poll project status until processing completes, then retrieve outputs (orthomosaic, point cloud, etc.)
Check license and image-count limits ahead of time, since start_processing rejects projects exceeding the allowed image count
Known gotchas
start_processing returns 400 if no images are registered yet, or if the project is already processing or deleted
Processing options can be set via a dedicated endpoint or as a shortcut through start_processing — mixing both inconsistently causes confusing overrides
This is the Cloud API (SaaS, no local compute) — a separate product line from the on-prem Pix4Dengine Server/SDK docs, which have similar-looking but distinct endpoints
