What is the AEC data model and API?
The AEC data model is a set of capabilities and data structures that establishes a shared language across the lifecycle of a project, connecting planning to design to construction to operations. It delivers open data access to enable fluid data collaboration across propriety tools.
The AEC Data Model API is a set of GraphQL APIs that provides direct cloud access to granular design data without the need to write application plugins or additional processing to retrieve data.
Here's what you can do with the AEC Data Model APIs
"We’ve been able to reach 60% more structured project data using the API... This means we can glean cross-project insights from more quality data and offer automated client delivery in a standardized way."
"The Autodesk Data Model API made it possible for us to extract data from our Revit models and centralize it on the cloud so it’s accessible within our organization."
