With Assets, you can easily maintain an inventory of jobsite equipment, carry out inspections, document defects, and generate issues related to assets for quick resolution.<\/p>\n<p>Using the Assets API, you can:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Read, create and update Asset records, including custom attribute values. You can access records either individually one-by-one or in batch-mode which allows you to access multiple records in one API call.<\/li>\n<li>Filter assets when reading assets records. (e.g., fetch assets that were modified since a given date by query parameter filter[updatedAt]).<\/li>\n<li>Read, create and update Asset-statuses. Read access has batch-mode access as well.<\/li>\n<li>Read, create and update custom attributes definition in project Admin settings, including the ability to set custom attributes to a given asset category. You can also read multiple custom attributes definition in batch-mode in one API call.<\/li>\n<li>Read, create and update categories in project admin settings. You can also use batch-mode to read multiple categories in one API call.<\/li>\n<li>Read, create and update status set in project admin settings. You can use batch-mode to multiple status set in one API call.<\/li>\n<li>Read, create links to issues\/checklists\/document in Docs module through Relationships API.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Using API, for example, you can extract assets data to export to external system and import back to the BIM 360 Assets module.
