More ACC/BIM 360 Cost Management API – Main Contract, Performance Trackinging, TIme Sheet

Cost Management API is continue growing, as we announced some new endpoints at blog in June 2023, which including Schedule of Values (SOV), Expenses and Expense Items, Payments and Payment Items.
We now are pleased to announce the availability of a couple of more endpoints for Cost Management API as promised. It includes the following areas:
- Main Contracts and Main Contract Items - CRUD
- Performance Tracking Items and Performance Tracking Item Instances - CRUD
- Time Sheets - CRUD
There are some tutorials provided to help developers better understand the usage of APIs:
- Track Budget Performance with Breakdowns
- Track Aggregated Budget Performance
- Update Existing Timesheets
We would also like to remind you that we would love to hear from you if there are any missing areas in Cost API. Your voice always helps us to prioritize.
One thing to note: Cost Management API is compatible for BIM 360 and ACC. While documentation pages list one form of based URL at a moment to support both, there are additional base URL with /construction/ which works for ACC only. i.e.,
For BIM 360:
- https://developer.api.autodesk.com/cost/v1/containers/:containerId/xxx
For ACC (both forms work):
- https://developer.api.autodesk.com/cost/v1/containers/:containerId/xxx
- https://developer.api.autodesk.com/construction/cost/v1/projects/:projectId/xxx
where in containerId is equivalent to projectId in ACC.
For the details of these new Cost Management API endpoints, please look at BIM 360 API Reference and ACC API Reference.
