Custom-Attributes
POST
custom-attributes:batch-get
Returns a specified set of custom attributes.
This endpoint accepts an object with an array of one or more custom attribute IDs, and/or an array of one or more custom attribute names, and returns an array of custom attributes corresponding to each of those IDs and/or names. Invalid custom attribute IDs and/or names will simply be omitted from the response and the client is responsible for identifying missing results.
To understand the basics of custom attributes, and the Assets settings that define them, see the Assets Field Guide.
Note that this endpoint is compatible with both BIM 360 and Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) projects.

results array: object | Returned custom attributes |
displayName string | The human-readable display name for the Asset custom attribute. This name appears when viewing the custom
attribute in the Assets UI, and must be unique within a project.
Max length: 100 |
description string | A description of the Asset custom attribute.
Max length: 1000 |
enumValues array: string | An array of string values that defines possible values that may be supplied when this custom attributes data
type (defined by dataType ) is set to select or multi_select . This field is required when the data
type is set to select or multi_select . |
requiredOnIngress boolean | Specifies whether or not this custom attribute is required when creating or editing an asset. If true , the
custom attribute is required. If false , it is not required. Setting this field to true does not guarantee
that existing or imported assets will have this custom attribute. |
maxLengthOnIngress int | The maximum length that a text value can be for this custom attribute when creating or editing an asset.
Setting a value for this field does not guarantee that existing or imported assets with this custom
attribute will have this attribute’s value limited to this length. This field only applies when datatype
is set to text . Default is 250 , which is the maximum value this field can be set to. |
defaultValue one of | The default value for this custom attribute if no value is specified on asset creation. If this field is not specified, the custom attribute does not have a default value. The default value it takes can be any one of three possible value types, defined below. |
0 string | A String value, maximum length: 250
Max length: 250 |
1 array: string | An array of string values that are set for a multi_select custom attribute. |
2 boolean | A Boolean value |
dataType enum:string | The data type that this custom attribute’s value must take. Once set, the data type can’t be changed.
Possible values:
|
id string | The ID of the component. |
createdAt string | The time when the component was created (ISO8601 Date time format in UTC). |
createdBy string | The actor that created the component. This is an Autodesk / Oxygen ID. |
updatedAt string | The time when the component was last updated (ISO8601 Date time format in UTC). |
updatedBy string | The actor that last updated the component. This is an Autodesk / Oxygen ID. |
deletedAt string | The time when the component was deleted at (ISO8601 Date time format in UTC). |
deletedBy string | The actor that deleted the component. This is an Autodesk / Oxygen ID. |
isActive boolean | A flag indicating whether the component is active or inactive (isActive is true if-and-only-if deletedAt is empty). |
version int | A global sequence number that is incremented any time a component of this type is created, updated, or deleted. If you cache components, you can use the version value to compare the cached component to the same component online to see if the component has been updated. If the online component has a higher version value, it has been updated. |
projectId string: UUID | The BIM 360 project ID. Must be a UUID or a project ID of the form “b.{UUID}”. |
name string | An autogenerated value, created when an Asset custom attribute is created. The name does not change over the life of the custom attribute. |
values array: object | An array of objects that describe the select values for select and multi_select Asset custom
attributes. |
id string | The ID of the component. |
createdAt string | The time when the component was created (ISO8601 Date time format in UTC). |

updatedBy string | The actor that last updated the component. This is an Autodesk / Oxygen ID. |
deletedAt string | The time when the component was deleted at (ISO8601 Date time format in UTC). |
deletedBy string | The actor that deleted the component. This is an Autodesk / Oxygen ID. |
isActive boolean | A flag indicating whether the component is active or inactive (isActive is true if-and-only-if deletedAt is empty). |
version int | A global sequence number that is incremented any time a component of this type is created, updated, or deleted. If you cache components, you can use the version value to compare the cached component to the same component online to see if the component has been updated. If the online component has a higher version value, it has been updated. |
projectId string: UUID | The BIM 360 project ID. Must be a UUID or a project ID of the form “b.{UUID}”. |
customAttributeId string: UUID | The ID of the custom attribute. |
displayName string | The display name of the value. Must be unique within the custom attribute (case-insensitive). Use to
generate the enumValues field for the custom attribute. |
