Transparency in 3D

I watched a video, from a couple of years ago, about 3D in Illustrator. It rendered an object with transparency, creating a glass effect. Is this still possible? I can't seem to make it work.

You need the Classic 3D effect with a transparent object and the option Draw Hidden Faces turned on.

If you're asking whether it is possible to adjust the opacity of an object with the 3D effect, the answer is yes.

What have you tried and what didn't work?
