My Experience

I have used the Basecamp API in one of my project named http://www.sluiceit.com/ which is a requirement management tool for projects, the sluiceit will integrate the Basecamp with the help of the basecamp API  the completed projects is exported to the existing project or with the help of the new project in the basecamp with the help of the API token. The completed requirments are transferred to the basecamp in the form of message along with their corresponding documents as well.

In the sluiceit.com only the clientAdmin and the projectAdmin have the rights to export the project into the basecamp.

For more information on how it is designed in the sluiceit.com, and the samples related to how to upload a document, create a message, todolist, milestones. You can e-mail me to gmail .
