Common Data Environments (CDE) for BIM projects –Open data exchange between platforms of different vendors via an open CDE API

Scope

This New Work Item will specify an application programming interface (API) of a CDE for data exchange between CDEs or between a CDE and an application. It will cover
• the protocol on how to connect to a CDE
• functions and parameters of the interface, including error handling
• the exchange of information via information containers and metadata
A machine-readable specification of the interface will be provided, giving software developers an unambiguous and efficient means for software production. This specification will be in a standardized description language, i.e. open API.
