Overview for the Procore site owner

TonicDM is an information management system that AECO organizations use to keep and organize their project records. By allowing the connection between your Procore site and TonicDM, people you've allowed access to in Procore will be able to access that same data in TonicDM.

  • Procore requires that the TonicDM user connect their TonicDM account to their Procore account using their Procore username and password. Procore then gives TonicDM the right to access Procore data as if it was that user.

  • From then on TonicDM can retrieve data from Procore in the same way that user would. Procore's security restricts access just as it would if the person had logged into the Procore website.

  • If you change permissions in Procore or deactivate the user in Procore, that user in TonicDM is immediately restricted in the same way. This is because all requests TonicDM makes on behalf of that user go through Procore's security, just like if the user was in the Procore website.

The only benefit this connection has to the TonicDM user is that they can pull their data into TonicDM instead of having to manually copy it from the Procore website, which saves them time.

How to turn on "Allow User Installs" or install the TonicDM Procore app

You will need to be a user with company-level Admin permissions on the Procore site to complete the following steps:

  • Navigate to the company-level Admin tool.

  • On the right side of the page under "Company Settings", click "App Management".

  • In the top-right of the page, you should see the "Allow User Installs" setting. Please turn this on as pictured below, or click Install App and choose TonicDM from the Marketplace.
