The C API library for Windows is built using Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 (v142). The online C API documentation can be found here: SketchUp C API Online Documentation Build and Release Considerations Windows The documentation contains reference material for all functions, data structures, and enumerations in both the SketchUp C API and the SketchUp Importer/Exporter interface. The SketchUp Importer/Exporter Interface allows you to create native SketchUp importer and exporter modules that are available directly within SketchUp as an import or export option. It can create new ones as well as read or modify existing ones. This API interacts directly with SketchUp files (.skp). The SketchUp C API is an interface for reading and writing data to and from SketchUp models.
