Procore API

Explore the Procore Developer Portal 
Procore's Developer Portal is where you'll find all the technical information that you need to develop and publish a successful application/integration to Procore's App Marketplace. You'll find exhaustive API Reference Documentation, helpful guides and tutorials, FAQs, and more. You are free to access and explore the API documentation in the Developer Portal without setting up an account.

• Visit the Developer Portal

Create Your Developer Portal Account
Once you are ready to start working with the Procore API to build your application, you will need to sign-up for an account on the Developer Portal and register your application. This is a simple, automated process that only takes a few minutes to complete.

Procore Platform Training
Before you build any type of integration or application using the Procore API, it's important to first have a baseline understanding of the Procore software platform. We've created a series of role-based certification courses that provide an overview of Procore's main product lines and tools. We recommend completing the certification courses that relate to the specific product lines and tools that your application will be integrating with.

Procore API Training
Once you have gained a foundational understanding of the Procore Platform, we recommend completing the courses in the Procore API series. These courses comprise lessons that focus on teaching you about the Procore API, working in the Developer Portal and the fundamentals of developing effectively within the Procore API architecture and framework.

Procore API Documentation

The first 30 days in our partnership programme are a critical time in establishing how your application will integrate with Procore. Your most helpful resource during the development and testing phase will be the API documentation.

• API Reference
• API Guides and Tutorials

Determine Proper OAuth 2.0 Authorization Grant Type
Procore offers the OAuth 2.0 protocol for accessing the Procore API. All API requests require an OAuth 2.0 access token. If you intend to publish your application on the Procore App Marketplace you must implement an OAuth 2.0 solution. Examine the resources listed below to help you determine which OAuth 2.0 grant type is appropriate for your integration.

• OAuth 2.0 Specification
• Procore OAuth 2.0 Guide

Build, Test and Iterate in a Development Sandbox
As a registered developer with Procore you have access to a sandbox environment in which can build and test your integration. Development sandboxes come pre-seeded with company and project level test data that you can expand upon to aid you in your development and test activities. A development sandbox provides an isolated environment in which you can experiment and validate your application without the risk of affecting production data.

Make Sample Calls Using Postman
Postman is a very popular and capable platform for working with and testing REST APIs. While you are in the exploratory stage with the Procore API, we recommend Postman as a platform for familiarizing yourself with the various endpoints exposed through the API. Postman is a feature-rich application that can run as a Chrome app or natively in Windows or Mac OSX.

Prepare User Documentation
Once you have finished building your application/integration and are ready to launch it in the Procore App Marketplace you must first be ready to provide basic end user documentation about your product. To help drive successful adoption of your product, it's critical that your end users can quickly and easily find the appropriate self-help resources that they need to set up and use your product in/with the Procore platform.

Prepare for Submission
Once you have finished developing and testing the first version of your application, the next step is to complete the prerequisites outlined in the following Developer Portal articles before it can be published to the Procore App Marketplace.

• Overview
• Marketplace Content Requirements
• Marketplace Technical Requirements

Submit Application
Once you have everything assembled you can log in your Procore Developer Portal account and visit your application page to enter and submit information for your App Marketplace listing.

• Submit App Marketplace Listing 

Review and Approval
Once Procore has reviewed and approved your application, we will set up a final check-in call to review your submission and schedule a launch date for when it will become publicly available on the Procore App Marketplace.

Publish Application
Once your application is officially approved, it will become visible on the Procore App Marketplace. Make sure your customer support team is prepared to handle any incoming support requests related to your application.
