Importing From Energy Modeling Software (API)

Welcome to the American Institute of Architects (AIA) 2030 Design Data Exchange (DDx) API. This guide outlines the steps to get you in motion and the relevant links to additional detail. The ability to import project data from an energy modeling tool is the first feature being exposed in the DDx API. The intent is to expand the data integration capabilities of the DDx through the API over time.

The energy modeling tool import feature allows a project that has been created in an energy modeling tool by the architecture firm and/or project team members to be added or updated to the firm’s account in the DDx database.


Regarding reporting, the API provides three main endpoints:

  • Importing a project
  • Fetching a project's information
  • Fetching all firm's projects
