Add the Breadcrumb Dev Account to an Autodesk Construction Cloud Project
After creating the Breadcrumb Custom Integration in Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), the Breadcrumb Dev system account is automatically created at the account level. To enable Breadcrumb to sync project data, add this account to the ACC project you want to connect.
Overview
When the custom integration is created:
-
A new Account Level Member called Breadcrumb Dev is automatically added.
-
This is a Self-Service Account, meaning no Breadcrumb employees have access to your Autodesk account.
-
The account is used only for secure system-to-system integration.
The Breadcrumb Dev user will automatically have Account Administrator access.
However, for Breadcrumb to sync project data, the user must also be added at the Project Level.
Step-By-Step
Step 1 — Confirm the Breadcrumb Dev Account Exists
-
In Autodesk Construction Cloud, go to Account Admin.
-
Select Members.
-
Locate the user Breadcrumb Dev in the member list.
This confirms the integration account was successfully created.
