Recent Changes

New Granular Permissions for Specifications (07/22/2025)

Procore has introduced new granular permissions to the Specifications tool, allowing for more precise control over user actions within the tool. The Specifications tool now supports more than a dozen new actions that can be configured within permission templates, providing enhanced flexibility and control. To learn more, see Specifications Permissions.

Modernized Mobile PDF Rendering (06/27/2025)

Procore has enhanced mobile PDF rendering for the Specifications tool for iOS and Android. The Apryse Viewer now provides a modern viewing experience, preparing the tool for future markup features.

ORGANIZE SPECIFICATIONS BY AREA FOR WEB AND MOBILE (05/19/2025)

Admins can now organize project specifications by building or project phase by turning on the Specifications by Area feature. Separate specification areas make it easier to find the correct specification, especially when there are multiple specifications with the same title or number. Learn more about how Admins can add, edit, or delete specification areas after enabling the feature.

This feature update is available on Procore Mobile apps on iOS and Android.

Modernized layout for specifications tool on web (12/16/2024)

The main page of Procore’s Specifications tool now matches other Procore tools with a modernized and intuitive interface. All the same tasks and features are available, and some appear only when you need them such as the edit, download, and delete menu appearing once you select list item(s).

Look for all your same buttons and features integrated into the main page instead of listed in a right-side panel. For example, instead of clicking the orange Manually Create Specs Sections button, click the white icon-plus-2.png ​​​​​​Create Specification button. See Manually Create Specification Sections to see the new interface and get navigational support.
