OpenProject API
Create own integrations, retrieve data, and automate actions
To integrate own systems or plugins, access data, and automate your workflows, build with the easy-to-use OpenProject API.
OpenProject’s API is a hypermedia REST API, a shorthand for “Hypermedia As The Engine Of Application State” (HATEOAS). This means that each endpoint of this API will have links to other resources or actions defined in the resulting body.
For BIM use cases, we also offer a BCF API v2.1, targeted towards Building Information Modeling (BIM) use cases. This API builds on top of the existing OpenProject data schema.

Last year, we introduced OpenProject in our non-profit project «fLotte Berlin» to organize all the tasks related to the operation of 250 cargo bikes that can be borrowed free of charge. Since then, the communication effort in our team has decreased significantly, our response times have improved noticeably and the processes have become more structured and transparent. During the introductory phase, OpenProject provided us with amazing support. Thank you again!
