The Files API enables you to programmatically manage documents in Forerunner, including elevation certificates, permits, maps, and other files. Files can be associated with properties using addresses, parcel IDs, or coordinates.

​
Supported File Types

Forerunner accepts various file types for different purposes, and which types are available to your specific account depends on how the account is set up. Please contact your CS rep for more information.
To receive notifications when file processing completes, configure a webhook for the relevant event.

Best Practices

Keep individual file uploads under 50MB for optimal processing.
When uploading a file that can be associated with a property, please provide as much location information as possible (address + parcel ID + coordinates) to ensure accurate property matching within Forerunner’s system.
