The openCDE initiative is a portfolio of API standards.

The foundation API can be found here: https://github.com/buildingSMART/foundation-API

On top of the Foundation API there are feature based additions:

  • BIM Collaboration Format (BCF) API: https://github.com/buildingSMART/bcf-API
  • Documents API: https://github.com/buildingSMART/documents-API
  • Dictionary API (also implemented by the buildingSMART Data Dictionary): https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/buildingSMART/Dictionaries/v1 More API projects will follow later.
