We are excited to announce the launch of updated product names, logos, and headers within our user interfaces as part of the CivicPlus® Solution Rebranding initiative. These changes mark the first step toward creating a cohesive and seamless user experience across all solutions in our portfolio. As part of this transition, users may notice minor design updates. While the functionality you rely on remains unchanged, we are in the process of updating screenshots and other resources on our Help Centers to reflect the new branding. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to complete these updates.

International Code Council (ICC) Integration

  • Updated:

Community Development has an integration with ICC’s Code Connect API, which allows you to search for relevant codes and attach them to records.

 

Preview

When you are in an area that allows code lookup, such as a violation or inspection, you can search by book by using the category selector.

The ICC Categories drop-down labeled Category.

 

You can provide a search term and then click “Search”. Your results will be shown in the table below.

The button labeled Search beneath the Category and Search Term fields.

 

To add a code to a record, you can select one more corresponding checkboxes and then select “Add selected codes/laws to current record”.

The button labeled Add selected codes / laws to current record, and the checkbox fields to the left of the Category column.
