# Gainsight PX API Integration on Truto



**Category:** Analytics  
**Status:** Generally available

## How it works

1. **Link your customer's Gainsight PX 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 Gainsight PX.** The Proxy API is a 1-to-1 mapping of the Gainsight PX 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

- **Enrich CRM accounts with real product usage data** — Revenue and Customer Success platforms can pull account-level feature adoption, login frequency, and custom event data from Gainsight PX to surface product health scores directly on account records — enabling data-driven upsell and churn prevention workflows.
- **Sync helpdesk content into the in-app Knowledge Center** — Helpdesk and knowledge base vendors can push their articles and documentation into Gainsight PX's KC Bot, letting joint customers serve contextual self-service content inside their product without manual duplication.
- **Trigger outbound campaigns from in-app behavior signals** — Marketing automation platforms can ingest PX engagement and survey data — like dismissed onboarding guides or low NPS responses — to automatically enroll users in targeted email sequences as a fallback engagement channel.
- **Push external segments and user attributes into PX for targeted engagements** — Data platforms and CDPs can sync cohorts, subscription tiers, or billing attributes into Gainsight PX so product teams can target in-app walkthroughs and tooltips based on data that lives outside PX.
- **Route in-app feedback to support and alerting tools** — Ticketing and internal communication platforms can listen for PX NPS/CSAT survey responses and behavioral drop-off events, automatically creating support tickets or notifying account owners in real time.

## What you can build

- **Product adoption scorecard on account records** — Pull account usage data and custom events from Gainsight PX to compute and display a live product adoption score inside your CRM or CS platform.
- **Automated Knowledge Center content sync** — Push newly published help articles or training courses from your platform into the Gainsight PX KC Bot so they're instantly searchable in-app.
- **Behavioral segment import pipeline** — Programmatically create and update External Segments in Gainsight PX based on cohorts, subscription data, or scoring models managed in your platform.
- **NPS response webhook and ticket creation** — Ingest PX survey responses and automatically generate support tickets or Slack alerts when a user submits a low NPS or CES score.
- **User attribute enrichment from CRM or billing data** — Upsert custom attributes like MRR, plan tier, or renewal date onto Gainsight PX User and Account objects so product teams can personalize in-app engagements.
- **Consent and preference management bridge** — Sync opt-in/opt-out decisions from your consent management platform to the Gainsight PX UserPreferences API to ensure GDPR/CCPA-compliant analytics tracking.

## FAQs

### What authentication method does Gainsight PX use?

Gainsight PX uses API key-based authentication. Each PX workspace provides a unique API key that must be passed in request headers. Truto handles storing and injecting these credentials so your end users just authorize once.

### Does Gainsight PX support custom attributes on Users and Accounts?

Yes. The PX API supports upserting arbitrary custom attributes on both User and Account objects via PUT endpoints. This is commonly used to tag records with external data like subscription tier, MRR, or CRM IDs.

### Is there a Unified API available for Gainsight PX through Truto?

Not yet. Gainsight PX integrations are built on request. Truto will handle auth, pagination, and API-specific quirks, but there is no pre-built Unified API model for it today. Reach out to discuss your specific use case.

### What are the rate limits on the Gainsight PX API?

Gainsight PX enforces rate limits on its REST API that vary by endpoint and plan tier. Truto manages retry logic and request throttling automatically so your integration stays within safe limits without custom backoff code.

### Can I push server-side events into Gainsight PX?

Yes. The PX Custom Events API accepts server-side events like 'Payment Failed' or 'Subscription Upgraded,' which can then be used inside PX to trigger in-app engagements or segment users by behavior.

### How fresh is the data when reading from the Gainsight PX API?

User and Account attribute data is available in near-real-time after upserts. Aggregated analytics and usage metrics may have a processing delay of a few hours depending on the PX workspace configuration and data volume.
