Code compliance got you down? There's a new API tool available to ease that frustration.
As part of the International Code Council’s (ICC) digital transformation, a new software intermediary, ICC Code Connect API, was created to provide businesses with instant access to the latest building code requirements within their workflow applications.
This software establishes a direct connection to ICC's codes and standards from within the user's workflow tool through the application programming interface (API).
The software contains simplified search tools and the latest code content to streamline common code references within existing workflow tools. There are seven pilots with software providers underway and integration with the Code Council’s CDS Online Permitting Software, Municity.
“With the increased need for more efficient online and digital services for building safety professionals, the development of ICC Code Connect API comes as an innovative solution to save organizations time and money,” said Joan O’Neil, ICC chief knowledge officer. “We will continue to enhance our digital products and solutions to better serve customers, members and the building community.”
ICC Code Connect API also integrates with General Code’s municipal online codes (eCode360). The eCode360 API provides a live connection to municipal codes housed on the eCode360 platform.
