Consider this option when needing to (relatively quickly and easily) create your own application integrations with ProjectWise, supported providers, or even your own custom provider providing secure access to your own custom data and libraries mapped via schema to expose your own REST API extensions to be called from any operating system client API providing HttpClient APIs.
