CDE Sync™ + Trimble Viewpoint.
CDE Sync™ connects together all of your AECO industry CDE platforms.
CDE Sync™ automates model, document and metadata synchronisation, in 15mins - no code required.

Overview:
Trimble is commonly used for model coordination and field delivery alongside a client or principal's document CDE, which usually means models and drawings are being exported, renamed and re-uploaded by hand between the two. CDE Sync™ removes that step entirely, streaming models, documents and metadata between Trimble and every other platform on your project. Retiring a platform altogether rather than running an ongoing sync? CDE Migrate™ handles that one-off move instead, preserving version history, metadata and audit trails intact.
Who it's for:
BIM Managers, Digital Engineers, Document Controllers and Project Managers running Trimble alongside another CDE.
What CDE Sync™ does for Trimble users:
Synchronises models, documents and metadata between Trimble and every other connected CDE
Maps metadata fields automatically against the target platform's schema
Preserves version history and workflow state, so nothing gets flattened or overwritten in transit
Logs every transfer for audit and compliance purposes
Pairs with CDE Migrate™ when you're moving off or onto Trimble entirely rather than running an ongoing sync
How it connects:
CDE Sync™ connects to Trimble through a dedicated service account and secure API integration, configured entirely through CDE Sync™'s no-code setup wizard. No scripting, no developer involvement, and nothing installed on your infrastructure.
Also syncs with:
Autodesk Forma (BIM360/ACC), Bentley ProjectWise, Microsoft SharePoint, Procore, Oracle Aconex, 12d Synergy, Asite, InEight, Trimble, Bluebeam, Egnyte, Dalux, RIB, and Azure Blob.
Security:
Built on Microsoft Azure and hosted in your choice of data region to meet residency and sovereignty requirements, see our Global Data Regions map. SOC 2 Type II certified, full detail on our Security & Trust Portal. Zero file persistence, your data is streamed, never stored.
FAQs:
Can CDE Sync™ replace manually re-uploading between Trimble and our other CDE?
> Yes, that's the exact problem this integration is built for.
How long does a Trimble connection take to set up?
> Typically 15 to 30 minutes.
Can we sync in both directions, or only one way?
> CDE Sync™ supports inbound, outbound and bi-directional syncs, configured per project.
Does this affect our existing Trimble project structure or permissions?
> No, CDE Sync™ syncs alongside your existing structure without changing user permissions in Trimble.
What if we want to migrate to Trimble entirely, not just sync?
> That's CDE Migrate™, our one-off migration service. It moves everything at once, preserving version history, metadata and audit trails, rather than keeping platforms continuously synchronised.
Does Issues Sync™ work with Trimble?
> Issues Sync™ currently connects Autodesk Forma and Construction Cloud, Bentley iTwin, Asite, Oracle Aconex, 12d Synergy, Procore, Microsoft SharePoint and InEight. Talk to us about adding Trimble to your Issues Sync™ configuration.
