API & Webhooks
Use the Projects API and webhooks to automate tasks, sync data, and link with enterprise systems.

APIs and webhooks let you connect Drawboard Projects to the other tools your team relies on. They’re ideal for Enterprise teams looking to automate steps, sync data, and trigger actions in real time.

With Drawboard Projects, you can use API keys and webhooks to integrate with internal systems or construction platforms. Use the public API for controlled data access and webhooks for event notifications, so reviews, issues, and documents stay in sync with the rest of your workflow.

Features + Benefits

Automate workflows

Create issues, sync files, or update statuses from your systems using the public API.

Event-driven updates

Use webhooks to notify your tools when drawings, documents, or issues change in Projects.

Build custom links

Connect Projects with systems like SAP, Oracle NetSuite, or Autodesk Construction Cloud to fit your process.

How to connect API & Webhooks

Setup happens in the Account Admin portal and only takes a few steps.

  1. In Projects, open Account Admin and go to API Keys and Webhooks. (Web app, Enterprise only.)

  2. To create an API key: choose a name, set expiry (3, 6, or 12 months), select Full-access or Read-only, then Generate. Up to 10 keys per org.

  3. To add a webhook: select the event you want to receive, enter your destination URL, and Add Webhook.

  4. Test your integration and rotate keys or add more webhooks as your workflow grows.

Note: API Keys and Webhooks Management is in beta; Enterprise teams can work with their account manager for support.

Ways to use Drawboard Projects and API & Webhooks

Drawboard Projects and your internal systems combine to make everyday workflows faster and easier to trust.

  • Approval handoffs: When a new revision is uploaded, trigger a webhook that creates or updates the related work order in your internal system.

  • Rule-based filing: Use the API to tag, move, or name reviewed drawings based on project codes so teams always find the right sheet.

  • CDE syncing: After review, push approved PDFs and metadata from Projects into your document hub (for example, Autodesk Construction Cloud) to keep the official record current.

No more stitching steps by hand. Let events and scripts do the heavy lifting. 

Integrate your systems with Projects via API & Webhooks today to automate the busywork.
