# HelloID API Integration on Truto



**Category:** Default  
**Status:** Generally available

## 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.
- **Roles** — The Role object represents a role of a User.
- **Users** — The User object represents a User.

## How it works

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

- **Automate user provisioning from HelloID's identity lifecycle** — SaaS companies can sync users, groups, and roles from HelloID to automatically provision accounts when employees join and deprovision them when they leave — eliminating manual onboarding and reducing security risk from stale accounts.
- **Mirror organizational RBAC structure inside your application** — By pulling HelloID's role and group hierarchy via Truto's Unified User Directory API, SaaS products can automatically map customers' internal permission structures to in-app workspaces, teams, or access tiers without any manual configuration.
- **Power compliance and access auditing with real-time directory data** — Compliance and security SaaS platforms can ingest HelloID's users, roles, and group memberships to generate automated access reviews, detect orphaned permissions, and produce audit-ready reports for ISO 27001 or GDPR.
- **Serve education customers with dynamic enrollment-driven access** — EdTech platforms can offer HelloID as a native integration so school districts automatically create and manage student and staff accounts based on SIS-driven identity changes flowing through HelloID — handling thousands of accounts at term boundaries without IT intervention.
- **Accelerate healthcare onboarding with day-one application access** — Healthcare SaaS products can sync with HelloID to detect new staff contracts instantly, granting clinicians and travelling nurses immediate access to required training modules or clinical tools the moment their HR record activates.

## What you can build

- **Automated seat provisioning and deprovisioning** — Sync users from HelloID in real time so new hires get accounts on day one and leavers are automatically suspended, reclaiming licenses without manual IT work.
- **Role-based workspace assignment** — Map HelloID roles and groups to in-app teams, projects, or permission levels so users land in the right context immediately after provisioning.
- **Organizational directory browser** — Surface a searchable, always-current org chart or people directory inside your app by pulling users, groups, and manager relationships from HelloID.
- **Access review dashboard** — Build a compliance view that cross-references HelloID group memberships and roles against in-app entitlements to flag over-provisioned or orphaned accounts.
- **Bulk enrollment sync for education tenants** — Automatically create and assign students to digital classrooms or cohorts based on HelloID group structures that mirror class schedules and academic years.
- **Contract-aware license management** — Use HelloID contract start and end dates to proactively allocate or reclaim software licenses, giving finance teams accurate usage data without manual reconciliation.

## FAQs

### What data can I pull from HelloID through Truto?

Truto's Unified User Directory API maps HelloID's identity data into standardized Users, Groups, and Roles resources. This includes profile information, group memberships, role assignments, and organizational relationships.

### How does authentication work for HelloID connections?

Truto handles the authentication flow with HelloID on behalf of your end users. Your customers connect their HelloID account through Truto's embedded linking experience, and Truto manages credential storage and token lifecycle so you don't have to.

### Does Truto handle HelloID API pagination and rate limits?

Yes. Truto abstracts away pagination and rate-limit handling for HelloID's API, so you receive complete result sets through the Unified User Directory API without building retry or cursor logic yourself.

### Are HelloID-specific tools and endpoints available today?

HelloID integration resources are built on request. Once you signal demand, Truto's team builds and tests the connector — including any HelloID-specific tools beyond the Unified User Directory API — typically on a fast turnaround.

### Can I use this integration to write data back to HelloID?

The Unified User Directory API focuses on reading Users, Groups, and Roles. If you need write operations such as creating users or updating group memberships in HelloID, contact Truto to discuss building custom tools for your use case.

### How fresh is the data synced from HelloID?

Data freshness depends on your polling interval and HelloID's own sync cadence with its source systems (HR, SIS). Truto fetches the latest available data from HelloID's API each time you make a request, so your data is as current as HelloID's own directory.
