Truto currently supports the Unified User Directory API for ServiceDesk Plus, covering Users and Workspaces. Additional tools and unified API resources (such as ticket creation, notes, and status updates) are built on request — reach out to the Truto team to scope what you need. ### How does authentication work for ServiceDesk Plus integrations? ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus supports OAuth 2.0 for its cloud (SDP On Demand) offering. Truto manages the full auth lifecycle — token generation, refresh, and secure storage — so your end users can connect their accounts without you handling credentials directly. ### Does the ServiceDesk Plus API differ by region or deployment type? Yes. The cloud version uses region-specific base URLs (e.g., sdpondemand.manageengine.com for US, .eu for Europe) and requires the custom header 'Accept: application/vnd.manageengine.sdp.v3+json'. Truto abstracts these regional quirks so you don't have to handle them in your code. ### Can I access custom fields on ServiceDesk Plus tickets or users? ServiceDesk Plus's REST API v3 supports reading and writing custom fields on requests (tickets) and other objects. When Truto builds out ticket-level tools for your integration, custom field mapping can be included. Contact Truto to discuss your specific schema requirements. ### How does Truto handle pagination for large ServiceDesk Plus datasets? Truto automatically manages API pagination so you can retrieve complete datasets — such as all users or all tickets — without writing pagination logic yourself. This is handled transparently through Truto's proxy and unified API layers. ### What if I need ServiceDesk Plus capabilities beyond the Unified User Directory API? Truto builds integration tools on request. Common asks include ticket CRUD, notes and worklogs, change and problem management, and asset/CMDB sync. Share your use case with the Truto team and they'll scope and build the necessary tools for your integration.
