# Britive API Integration on Truto



**Category:** SSO  
**Status:** Beta

## Unified APIs

### Unified User Directory API

- **Users** — The User object represents a User.

## How it works

1. **Link your customer's Britive 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 Britive.** The Proxy API is a 1-to-1 mapping of the Britive 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 Britive identities into your compliance reporting platform** — Compliance and audit SaaS products can ingest Britive's user directory to automatically verify zero standing privileges and generate auditor-ready reports proving least-privilege access across cloud environments.
- **Map Britive users to your application's internal identity graph** — SaaS platforms that manage cross-tool workflows need a unified view of their customers' users. Pulling Britive user data lets you correlate privileged access identities with users from other connected systems.
- **Automate user lifecycle management for privileged access** — HR, IT, and security SaaS products can detect onboarding and offboarding events by syncing Britive's user directory, ensuring that privileged cloud access profiles are provisioned or revoked in lockstep with employee lifecycle changes.
- **Enrich incident response workflows with privileged user context** — Incident management and ChatOps platforms can look up Britive users to identify who holds or recently held elevated access during an outage, accelerating root cause analysis and reducing mean time to resolution.
- **Power AI agent identity verification before JIT access requests** — Agentic AI and developer productivity platforms can query Britive's user directory to validate that an AI agent or service account is a known identity before orchestrating just-in-time privileged access workflows.

## What you can build

- **Unified privileged user directory sync** — Continuously import Britive users alongside identities from other SSO and directory providers into a single normalized user list using Truto's Unified User Directory API.
- **Zero standing privileges compliance dashboard** — Display a real-time view of all active Britive users and their status to help security teams prove least-privilege posture during SOC 2 or HIPAA audits.
- **Automated offboarding alerts for privileged accounts** — Detect when a user is deactivated or removed in Britive and trigger downstream workflows like revoking application access or notifying IT administrators.
- **Cross-platform identity reconciliation report** — Match Britive user records against your customers' HRIS, IdP, and other directory sources to surface orphaned accounts or identity mismatches that represent security risks.
- **Privileged user count analytics for seat-based billing** — Query Britive's active user base to power usage-based pricing models or license optimization features within your SaaS product.

## FAQs

### What Unified APIs does Truto support for Britive?

Britive is supported under Truto's Unified User Directory API, which provides a normalized interface for reading user data. This covers user listing and user detail retrieval across directory providers.

### Are there pre-built Truto tools available for Britive?

No pre-built tools are available yet. Britive tools are built on request — contact Truto to prioritize specific endpoints or workflows you need for your integration.

### How does authentication work for connecting a customer's Britive account?

Truto manages the authentication flow on your behalf. Britive's API typically uses API tokens or OAuth-based credentials. Your end users connect their Britive account through Truto's managed auth flow, so you don't need to handle token storage or refresh logic yourself.

### What user data can I retrieve from Britive through Truto?

Through the Unified User Directory API, you can retrieve core user attributes such as user identity details, active/inactive status, and associated metadata. The exact fields available depend on what Britive exposes via its API and how the integration is configured.

### Can I write data back to Britive or only read from it?

The current Unified User Directory API focuses on reading user data. Write operations or more advanced workflows like profile checkout and JIT access provisioning would require custom tool development — reach out to Truto to scope these capabilities.

### Does Truto handle pagination and rate limiting for Britive's API?

Yes. Truto abstracts away API-specific quirks including pagination logic and rate limit handling, so you get a consistent experience regardless of the underlying provider's API behavior.
