Create a private Bluebeam integration

Bluebeam offers a private integration path that bypasses the full production approval process. You register a developer application for private use and bring those credentials to Alloovium — no public listing or Bluebeam review required.

Why this route exists

Bluebeam’s developer program has two tiers: a fast-tracked private registration (24–48 hours) and a full production approval for publicly listed integrations. Alloovium uses the private path: your app is private to your organisation, so no marketplace review is needed.

Your credentials are encrypted in Alloovium and never shared with other customers. The private integration path is officially supported by Bluebeam for exactly this use case.

Requirements

  • A Bluebeam Studio Prime subscription (required for API access).
  • A Bluebeam ID (BBID) to sign in to the developer portal.
  • About 24–48 hours for developer portal access to be approved.

Studio Prime required

The Bluebeam API is only available to Studio Prime subscribers. Bluebeam Revu Complete and basic plans do not include Studio API access. Confirm your subscription tier with your Bluebeam account manager before proceeding.

1. Request developer portal access

  1. 1

    Go to the Bluebeam Developer Portal

    Visit developers.bluebeam.com. Click "Request Access" and fill out the registration form.

  2. 2

    Indicate private use

    When asked whether the integration is publicly or privately available, select Private. This routes your request to the faster private-use approval track.

  3. 3

    Wait for approval

    Bluebeam reviews requests within 24–48 business hours and sends credentials by email. Private integrations are typically approved faster than public ones.

2. Create an application

  1. 1

    Sign in to the developer portal

    Once approved, sign in to developers.bluebeam.com with your BBID.

  2. 2

    Create a new application

    Click "New Application". Give it a name like "Alloovium — Internal" and add this redirect URI: https://app.alloovium.com/integrations/bluebeam/callback

  3. 3

    Copy Client ID and Client Secret

    After saving, copy the Client ID and Client Secret from the application detail page.

Protect your Client Secret

The Client Secret grants read access to your Studio sessions. Treat it like a password and do not share it. Rotate it in the developer portal if it is ever exposed.

3. Connect in Alloovium

  1. 1

    Open Alloovium → Integrations → Bluebeam

    Navigate to the Bluebeam integration page in Alloovium.

  2. 2

    Enter credentials

    Paste your Client ID and Client Secret into the credential fields.

  3. 3

    Authorise and select sessions

    Click Connect. You will be redirected to Bluebeam to authorise access with your BBID. After authorising, select the Studio sessions you want to sync.

Troubleshooting

Approval taking longer than 48 hours

Email integrations@bluebeam.com with your registration details if you haven’t heard back within 2 business days. Mention that you are requesting private integration credentials.

Studio sessions not appearing

Only sessions where your BBID is a participant will appear. Contact the session owner to confirm you have been invited to the Studio session.

Authentication fails after entering credentials

Ensure you are signing in with the BBID associated with your Studio Prime subscription. Guest accounts and trial accounts cannot access the Studio API.
