--- title: Asset Panda API Integration on Truto slug: assetpanda category: Default canonical: "https://truto.one/integrations/detail/assetpanda/" --- # Asset Panda API Integration on Truto **Category:** Default **Status:** Beta ## Unified APIs ### Unified User Directory API - **Groups** — Groups are a collection of users in the source application. In some applications, they might also be called Teams. - **Me** — - **Users** — The User object represents a User. ## How it works 1. **Link your customer's Asset Panda account.** Use Truto's frontend SDK; we handle every OAuth and API key flow so you don't need to create the OAuth app. 2. **Authentication is automatic.** Truto refreshes tokens, stores credentials securely, and injects them into every API request. 3. **Call Truto's API to reach Asset Panda.** The Proxy API is a 1-to-1 mapping of the Asset Panda API. 4. **Get a unified response format.** Every response uses a single shape, with cursor-based pagination and data in the `result` field. ## Use cases - **Sync employee directories to automate asset assignment** — HR and IT automation platforms can use Truto's Unified User Directory API to keep Asset Panda's user base in sync with identity providers, ensuring assets are always assigned to valid, active employees without manual data entry. - **Enrich IT service desk tickets with asset context** — Helpdesk and ITSM platforms can pull asset records from Asset Panda to surface device details like serial numbers, warranty status, and assignment history directly in the agent view — reducing resolution times and eliminating back-and-forth with end users. - **Automate compliance audits by cross-referencing users and assets** — Security and compliance SaaS products can reconcile active employee lists against Asset Panda's tracked devices to flag untracked employees or orphaned assets, helping customers meet SOC 2 and ISO 27001 requirements. - **Drive procurement workflows from asset lifecycle events** — Procurement and logistics platforms can create, update, and retire asset records in Asset Panda as devices are purchased, shipped, or recovered — keeping Asset Panda as the single source of truth while automating the operational layer. - **Power onboarding checklists with real-time asset availability** — Employee onboarding platforms can query Asset Panda for available equipment and automatically assign devices and licenses to new hires detected through directory syncs, closing the gap between HR provisioning and IT fulfillment. ## What you can build - **Automated user-to-asset reconciliation dashboard** — Build a view that cross-references users from Truto's Unified User Directory API with Asset Panda records to instantly surface employees missing assigned devices or assets assigned to inactive users. - **Asset context panel for support tickets** — Display the ticket requester's assigned assets, including serial number, status, and location, directly inside your helpdesk UI by querying Asset Panda's asset records by user. - **One-click asset provisioning on employee onboarding** — Trigger asset creation and assignment in Asset Panda automatically when a new user appears in your customer's directory via the Unified User Directory API. - **Lifecycle status sync for procurement events** — Automatically update asset statuses in Asset Panda (e.g., Deployed, In Repair, Retired) when corresponding procurement, shipping, or retrieval events occur in your platform. - **Group-based asset access policies** — Leverage groups from Truto's Unified User Directory API to define and enforce asset allocation rules based on department, team, or role within Asset Panda. - **Compliance gap detection alerts** — Continuously compare the active user directory against Asset Panda's tracked asset inventory and fire alerts when an active employee lacks a tracked, compliant device. ## FAQs ### What authentication method does Asset Panda's API use? Asset Panda uses Bearer token authentication for its REST API (v3). Truto handles token management and auth flows so your team doesn't need to build or maintain the auth layer. ### Which Unified APIs does Truto support for Asset Panda? Truto currently supports Asset Panda through the Unified User Directory API, which covers Users, Groups, and Me resources. Additional tools and unified API coverage can be built on request. ### How does Truto handle Asset Panda's custom fields? Asset Panda is highly customizable — most customers extend its data model with organization-specific fields. Truto's platform is designed to handle dynamic custom field mapping, so your integration can adapt to each customer's unique Asset Panda configuration. ### Can I read and write asset records through Truto today? Asset-level tools (records, locations, custom fields) are not pre-built but are available on request. Truto builds and ships new tools quickly, so you can request specific Asset Panda endpoints to be added to your integration scope. ### How does Truto handle pagination for Asset Panda API responses? Truto abstracts away pagination entirely. When you query Asset Panda through Truto, the platform handles cursor or offset-based pagination behind the scenes and returns consistent, unified responses. ### What data can I access through the Unified User Directory API for Asset Panda? You can access user profiles, group memberships, and the authenticated user's own details (Me). This is useful for syncing employee directories, validating asset assignments, and enforcing group-based allocation policies.
