Steps
Review the Trimble Connect developer docs at https://developer.trimble.com/docs/connect/ and the Core API reference at https://developer.trimble.com/docs/connect/core-api/.
Register a Trimble Developer account and application through the Trimble Developer Program to obtain OAuth credentials.
Use the Core API to manage projects, folders, files, and views programmatically (create/read/update project structure, upload survey deliverables).
For automated grouping/organization workflows, look at the separate Model Feature API (Project Organizer groups) rather than trying to force this through the Core API alone.
For browser-embedded integrations, use the published JavaScript SDK instead of raw REST calls where a UI component is needed.
Known gotchas
Trimble Connect has multiple distinct API surfaces (Core, Model, Organizer, Property Set) documented separately — picking the wrong one (e.g., trying to do file management through the Model API) will not work as expected.
OAuth app registration and review can take longer than a same-day API key process — budget lead time before a project's Connect integration is needed live.
