Standard Procedure

Info

Developers please use

Newwindowlink
titlehttps://api-stage.bimplus.net/v2
urlhttps://api-stage.bimplus.net/v2
(stage version of Bimplus API) and
Newwindowlink
titlehttp://portal-stage.bimplus.net/
urlhttp://portal-stage.bimplus.net/
(stage version of Shop/Portal) for testing purposes. The production version of the portal is located under 
Newwindowlink
titlehttps://portal.bimplus.net/
urlhttps://portal.bimplus.net/
  and the base url of the API is different for the production version.

Generally, the Bimplus REST API calls consist of five steps for accessing the resources.

1. Developer Registration

Generally our portal 

Newwindowlink
titleAllplan Bimplus
urlhttps://www-stage.bimplusallplan.net/urlhttps://www-stage.bimplus.netcom/uk_en/products/allplan-bimplus/
is the first place of contact of the user /developer for using the Bimplus platform.

Please do the developer registration

Newwindowlink
titlehere
urlhttps://connect-stage.allplan.com/bimplus-freemium.html
.

You can find step by step manual here.

When you have any problems with the registration contact ushere.

 Authentication token request

The authentication request for accessing the BimPlus resource should be sent in the JSON format using the OIDC Authorization service. The registered user name and password in the

Newwindowlink
titleBimplus portal
urlhttps://wwwportal-stage.bimplus.net
should be provided here.

For example, you can enable the OAuth 2.0 authentication process directly in your REST-client and it will automatically create and refresh tokens when needed.

It is recommended to use browser UI to login and logout with OIDC server. For this process, you can specify discovery URL and retrieve JSON with latest settings there.



Received token should be directly used to access BimPlus resources after receiving it from OIDC. Refreshing and revoking of the tokens are also managed by OIDC, not BimPlus. Old authentication service in BimPlus remains only for backward compatibility and will be removed in 2026.

Please, use the client_id from the request and regenerate the token (using the same API call with client_id as the additional parameter) for having the possibility to login multiple times at the same time. For more information, see here
