We are excited to announce the general availability of Webhooks API for Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) and BIM 360 Cost Management!
We have heard many developers asking for Webhooks for ACC/BIM 360. This is the first set of Webhooks API for Autodesk Build! Using Webhooks API, you can subscribe events triggered by certain actions, such as when a budget is created/updated/deleted; your application can monitor and respond to it. If your application requires synchronization of data between the Cost module and your applications, this feature eliminates the needs for polling many times, drastically reducing the number of calls.
The Cost Management Webhooks service exposes the following 43 new Webhook events. They are under the new system "autodesk.construction.cost":

- project.initialized-1.0
