Rmfg Review Links
Blocks for handing a design to a person on rmfg.com. A review link opens the 3D configurator with a starting configuration; whatever the person saves can be read back and used for quoting.
RMFG Create Review Link
What it is
Creates an RMFG review link so a person can inspect and adjust a design
How it works
Posts a design ID and configuration to /v1/review-links with an Idempotency-Key; optionally attach a dfm_id so the page opens with that report's exact configuration. The returned review_url is a private hand-off link: the viewer can change material, finish and hole operations and save. Every design also carries a default review_url.
An unknown design or DFM report, or a configuration that references invalid IDs, is rejected by RMFG and reported as RMFG <code>: <message> (field: <path>). Links carry an expires_at, and configuration_updated_at is empty until a person saves.

Possible use case
Complex Configuration: Hand an assembly with many holes to the customer to configure themselves instead of guessing.
Approval Before Ordering: Let a customer inspect and adjust the exact configuration before the agent quotes it.
Engineer Sign-Off: Send a DFM report's configuration to an engineer for review on rmfg.com.
RMFG Get Review Link
What it is
Fetches an RMFG review link and the configuration a person saved on it
How it works
Fetches /v1/review-links/{id}. configuration_updated_at is set once a person has saved changes, and configuration then holds their choices, ready to pass into Create Quote or Create Cart; before that it is empty and configuration is the starting configuration.
An unknown ID is reported as RMFG not_found_error: <message>; a link past expires_at returns status expired, and a new link must be created for further edits.
Inputs
link_id
Link ID from Create Review Link, or a design's review_link_id

Yes
Outputs
