Hi @0DWADE0 There are not many references available about exporting a ply file with C++. I recommend using the save_to_ply instruction, which has a range of options for configuring export. A RealSense team member shares a C++ code snippet for save_to_ply at #6677 (comment)

A list of the supported configuration commands can be found at #4906 and also at the link below.
