Returns all active and archived projects within your ConstructionOnline company account
https://api.constructiononline.com/api/v2/Projects
This endpoint allows users to obtain important project data from their ConstructionOnline company account. Using this endpoint, users can extract their current company project record from ConstructionOnline, which consists of all active and archived projects within their company account. Note that this does not include any deleted projects or projects the user may have been added to as a client or a sub. Deleted projects can be obtained using the get all deleted projects endpoint, while a record of all company projects + client/sub projects can be acquired using this endpoint.

My Documents
In addition to your company projects, this endpoint will also return a project object called 'My Documents', which stores specific file information for the user accessing the project record. While 'My Documents' returns as a project object, it is only used to keep track of your personal files and serves as a parent object for files, templates, and other objects in ConstructionOnline. Project-specific properties such as scope of work or address will not contain any data. Multiple instances of 'My Documents' may be returned if you were added to more than one company, removed from a company, etc. These represent old references to the official 'My Documents' object, which is always the first returned object (the one with the lowest ID value).
