API to create Tube & Pipe objects

We are a company which creates digital catalogs containing parts which can be directly exported to Autodesk Inventor. We also have catalogs with tube and pipe parts and we need an API in Inventor in order to create such parts in Inventor. Is there such an API / Are there plans to provide such an API in the future? I have already seen some existing posts regarding the same issue here.

What is more specific you want to do with Tube and Pipe? As you may know, Inventor does expose any API for T & P and C & H. If you want something new for cabling, you may have to start from very basic using API such as 3D sketch and sweep feature.

Thanks

As i said we already are able to create parts and assemblies in Inventor via the API (using 3D sketch and all kinds of features). The next step would be to create objects like roundings using the API. I am just checking if there is any new API for that purpose and maybe Autodesk will implement it if a lot of people ask for it.
