• Build custom integrations beyond the hundreds of native connections available in Procore's marketplace.

Why Integrate Procore with Emergent

Building custom applications on top of Procore directly typically requires implementing OAuth flows, managing access tokens and refresh logic, handling company and project ID hierarchies, building construction-specific user interfaces, creating complex job costing and budget tracking logic, and maintaining infrastructure, each custom construction tool can quickly become a multi-month engineering project requiring both construction industry domain knowledge and API expertise.

Emergent eliminates that complexity, with benefits including:

• Build by prompt, describe the construction management app or project workflow you want and the Procore data you need, Emergent automatically scaffolds the UI, REST API integration, data models, and workflow orchestration without requiring you to write boilerplate code.

• Construction-domain aware, Emergent understands Procore's data structures including projects, companies, cost codes, budget line items, change orders, RFIs, submittals, drawings, and daily logs, helping you map relationships accurately and handle construction-specific concepts like three-way matching, committed costs, and earned value analysis.

• Secure by design, features include encrypted OAuth token storage, automatic token refresh, environment isolation (development, staging, production), role-based access control for different project stakeholders, project data privacy safeguards, audit-friendly logs, and compliance-ready data handling suitable for construction industry requirements.

• Real-time workflows, built-in support for polling Procore data for project updates, triggering actions based on budget variances or schedule changes, handling API pagination for large projects with thousands of cost codes or submittals, caching frequently accessed project data, and comprehensive error handling for reliability.

• Orchestrate multiple tools, combine Procore with Salesforce, QuickBooks, Google Sheets, Slack, and Zapier to build complete construction operations systems.

• Rapid iteration, update your app with new prompts, add project tracking features, connect additional data sources like equipment telematics or material suppliers, or modify dashboards without rewrites.

How Emergent Works with Procore in Real Time?

STEP 1: Describe your app

Example: "Build a project health dashboard that monitors Procore projects for budget overruns exceeding 5%, schedule delays, overdue RFIs, pending change orders, and safety incidents, sends Slack alerts for critical issues, syncs financial data to QuickBooks daily, updates Salesforce opportunities when projects reach milestones, and generates weekly executive reports in Google Sheets."

STEP 2: Declare integrations

Say "Procore + Slack + QuickBooks + Salesforce + Google Sheets." Emergent sets up OAuth flows, REST API clients, webhook handlers where applicable, and recommended connection patterns for each service.

STEP 3: Secure credentials

Complete Procore OAuth 2.0 authentication using Client Credentials Grant for service account access with appropriate tool permissions. Credentials are stored in an encrypted vault with environment-specific isolation (development, staging, production) and role-based access controls.

STEP 4: Configure Procore data access

Emergent guides you through selecting the Procore resources you need: companies, projects, budgets, change orders, RFIs, submittals, daily logs, documents, or custom reports. Define filters based on project status, date ranges, cost codes, or budget thresholds, and ensure mandatory Procore-Company-ID headers are properly configured.

STEP 5: Map data and workflows

Emergent helps you map Procore project data, cost codes, budget line items, and change orders to your application's data model. Configure automation triggers like budget variance thresholds, RFI due dates, submittal approval workflows, or safety incident logging, and define downstream actions like team notifications, accounting updates, or executive reporting.

STEP 6: Real-time and scheduled operations

Set up polling intervals to check for Procore project updates, budget changes, or new RFIs, configure scheduled batch operations for daily job costing syncs, weekly progress reports, or monthly financial reconciliation, and implement event-based triggers for immediate response to critical project issues.

STEP 7: Test and preview

Run test queries against Procore REST API endpoints, simulate various project scenarios including budget overruns and schedule delays, validate data mappings to downstream systems like QuickBooks or Salesforce, check OAuth token refresh handling, review pagination logic for large projects, and ensure error recovery mechanisms work correctly.

STEP 8: Deploy

Deploy your construction management app with one click, complete with versioning, performance monitoring, error alerts, usage analytics, and automatic scaling. Roll back to previous versions or iterate with new prompts as construction projects and business requirements change.

STEP 9: Expand

Add new capabilities like predictive project risk scoring using historical data, automated resource allocation recommendations, AI-powered cost forecasting, real-time equipment utilization tracking, or subcontractor performance analytics. Connect additional tools like BIM platforms, scheduling software, or IoT sensors without architectural changes.
