Hi all.
We use the extent to fetch data from an API. (So we're expecting a correct extent in 3D). Maybe we can use a library or something?
Can someone help me?
Thanks!

Because of rotation and tilt, an extent can never correctly cover the camera's visible area in 3D. We currently offer two possibilities
It might help to know that we are currently working on a property with the visual area. Because this will be provided as a polygon, it will take tilt and rotation into account. This is planned to land this year, potentially in the upcoming 4.30 release.
In the meantime you could increase the size of the extent returned by SceneView using Extent.expand. Computing the extent or visible area yourself is rather complex and I cannot point you to any recourses. Our own implementation takes various factors into account, such as the elevation or visible geometries in the view.
