Blender Integration
Learn how to install, configure, and use the VisibleIO plugin for Blender to setup high-fidelity 3D assets combination with VisibleIO CMS.
1Installation
The VisibleIO Blender plugin streamlines the workflow from asset creation to web deployment. Ensure you are running Blender 3.6 LTS or newer before proceeding.
Note: If you are upgrading from v1.0, please uninstall the previous version completely to avoid conflicts.
2Addon installation
Open Blender and navigate to the Edit menu, then select Preferences. Choose Add-ons, click Install, and select the VisibleIO `.zip` you downloaded.
VisibleIO
Official Blender ↔ CMS bridge
Style preset
Map Blender materials to VisibleIO material schemes. Presets keep brand surfaces consistent across every published variant without rewriting nodes per SKU.
Visibility Rules
Constrain which object and material combinations are valid. Invalid states never reach the viewer — so merchandising teams cannot publish broken configurators.
API Reference
Control cameras, materials, and events from your storefront with the viewer runtime API. Full endpoint docs ship with the Pro / Max workspaces.
Embed iframe
Drop a single iframe on Shopify, Wordpress, or any custom site. The viewer loads delta assets only — no multi-hundred-megabyte GLB dump on first paint.
