MakerWorld

Bambu Lab’s platform for sharing 3D printable models, many with tuned print profiles, open to any printer. Thingport imports a model with its print profiles, imports collections, and keeps them in sync.

What comes in

  • Every file of the model, and its print profiles: the one the link points to, all of the designer’s, or the community’s too. Each profile becomes its own 3MF file on the model, tagged with the profile.
  • Collections, private ones included, through your cookie. MakerWorld rate-limits bulk imports quickly, so collections are imported with Thingport Grab, which waits between models, and a synced collection brings in only models added from then on.
  • MakerWorld’s files are Bambu Studio projects; other slicers can open them as normalized 3MFs.

Setup

MakerWorld has no developer API, so Thingport imports as your own signed-in MakerWorld session, captured as a cookie.

Easiest: Thingport Grab

Thingport Grab reads the cookie the first time you import from a MakerWorld tab where you’re signed in, and connects MakerWorld in Configuration → Providers for you. There’s nothing to copy by hand.

Manual: copy it from your browser

  1. Sign in at makerworld.com.
  2. Open DevTools (F12, or Cmd+Option+I on macOS).
  3. Chrome/Edge: Application tab > Cookies > https://makerworld.com. Firefox: Storage tab > Cookies.
  4. Copy the Value of the cookie named token.
  5. Right-click MakerWorld in Thingport’s Configuration → Providers, choose Connect and paste it. Thingport checks it with MakerWorld before storing it.

If there’s no cookie named token (MakerWorld occasionally renames things), use the Network tab instead: reload the page, pick any request to makerworld.com, and copy the whole cookie: request header. Thingport keeps only the token=... part.

This is your own MakerWorld login session — don’t share it. MakerWorld sessions expire now and then; Thingport says so, and Grab or a fresh paste connects it again.

Limits

  • A MakerWorld CAPTCHA or daily download limit pauses imports and syncs until it clears.
