§ Overview

What connecting Tyler EnerGov does.

SentraBridge reads and writes EnerGov permits, plans, inspections, licenses, code cases, contacts and parcels. Tyler doesn't publish EnerGov's API, so paths here are SentraBridge's best guess from public information; they are checked against the city's Tyler documentation during setup.

  • Permits: Read changed permits; create and update type, work class, status and key dates.
  • Inspections: Read changed inspections; create and update type, status, result and inspector.
  • Code cases: Read changed cases; create cases with type, violation, officer and address.
  • Plans and business licenses: Read changed plan cases and licenses.
  • Contacts and parcels: Read and create contacts; read parcels with owner, zoning and coordinates.

§ FAQ

Tyler EnerGov integration questions

Does Tyler EnerGov have an API?

EnerGov has APIs that Tyler provides under the city's contract, but they aren't published. SentraBridge's catalog uses EnerGov naming and is confirmed against your Tyler documentation.

How do I get EnerGov permits onto an ArcGIS map?
