Blender Plugin

Upload models to Glossi straight from Blender. The add-on exports your scene (or just the selected objects) as GLB using Blender's native glTF exporter and sends it to your workspace.

Works with Blender 3.0 and newer, on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Install

1. Download the add-on zip (don't unzip it).
2. In Blender, open Edit > Preferences > Add-ons.
3. Install the zip:
   • Blender 4.2 and newer - click the dropdown arrow (top right) > Install from Disk... and pick the zip.
   • Blender 3.x – 4.1 - click the Install... button and pick the zip.
4. Enable Glossi Uploader in the add-on list (search for "Glossi" if you don't see it).

Connect your workspace

1. With the add-on enabled, expand its preferences (or click the gear icon in the Glossi panel later).
2. Paste your workspace API key (see App Plugins Overview for how to create one).
3. Click Test Connection - you should see Connected to <your workspace>.

Upload a model

1. In the 3D viewport, press N to open the sidebar and switch to the Glossi tab.
2. Optionally set a Name for the model - it defaults to the active object's name.
3. Tick Selection Only to export just the selected objects instead of the whole scene.
4. Click Upload to Glossi.

The status line below the button tracks progress (uploading, processing) - Blender stays fully responsive while it runs. When it finishes, the model is in Library > Models, and the Open Glossi Library button takes you straight there.

Tips

• Delete what you don't want shipped. The whole scene exports unless Selection Only is on - including Blender's default cube.
• Apply transforms first (Ctrl+A > All Transforms) so scale and rotation arrive in Glossi as you see them in Blender.
• Procedural textures need baking before export - see Importing from Blender for the full preparation guide. Everything on that page about preparing models applies to plugin uploads too; the plugin just replaces the export + manual upload steps.

Troubleshooting

• "Invalid API key" - the key was revoked, expired, or mistyped. Create a fresh one in Workspace Settings > API Keys and paste it again.
• "Nothing selected" - Selection Only is on but no objects are selected. Select your model or untick it.
• Upload succeeds but the model looks wrong - check the preparation guide linked above (transforms, units, baked textures).
