Methods which are **ICM Exchange only** are not documented as such

[sancarn]

Many methods are available only in ICM exchange, however are documented as available in the UI mode.

Current ruby automation method:

def try(object,method,args)
	begin
		object.method(method).call(*args)
	rescue Exception => e
                message = e.to_s  #In general if you get a parameter type error, the method is likely runnable in the UI.
                if (message =="The method cannot be run from the user interface")
                    message = "ICMExchange Only"
                elsif message=="The method is for Innovyze internal use only, please check your licence."
                    message = "Innovyze Private method"
                elsif message == "The method cannot be run from InfoWorks ICM"
                    message = "The method cannot be run from InfoWorks ICM"
                end
		puts object.to_s + "." +  method.to_s.ljust(40) + ":\t" + message
	end
end

I created a ruby script to determine this from the UI Mode. Please see that GISST for the results of the script as well as a work in progress script, which I will be using in the future.
