Hi @11167 ,

Thanks for your post.

If your 3DTileset contains metadata (as referred to in the other thread you opened here [3Dtiles model as Classification - #2 by Luke\_McKinstry](https://community.cesium.com/t/3dtiles-model-as-classification/39487/2)) then you can use the approach for picking shown in this sandcastle example [Cesium Sandcastle](https://sandcastle.cesium.com/?src=3D%20Tiles%201.1%20CDB%20Yemen.html).

I hope this answers your question and please let us know if we can help further.

Best,  
Luke
