## How it works

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

- **Provision compliant client vaults on signup** — WealthTech, tax, and legal SaaS platforms can automatically spin up a branded, templated SideDrawer vault the moment a new client is created, eliminating manual onboarding and ensuring every client folder structure matches compliance requirements.
- **Embed a secure document workspace in your CRM** — Financial services CRMs can render a native file tree per contact by mapping each CRM record to a SideDrawer Drawer, so advisors upload, organize, and share sensitive documents without leaving the app.
- **Push generated reports directly into client vaults** — Financial planning, reporting, and e-signature platforms can deliver finalized PDFs, portfolio reports, and signed contracts straight into the correct client folder, replacing insecure email attachments with an auditable delivery channel.
- **Pull existing financial documents to accelerate underwriting** — Mortgage, lending, and insurance platforms can (with user consent) ingest W-2s, tax returns, and pay stubs from a client's existing SideDrawer, removing manual re-uploads and shortening application cycles.
- **Stream audit trails into your compliance product** — RegTech and compliance SaaS can pull SideDrawer timeline events into their own dashboards, giving firms a unified view of who accessed, downloaded, or modified regulated documents for SEC/FINRA reporting.

## What you can build

- **Templated vault provisioning** — Create a new Drawer and apply a predefined template to auto-generate the correct folder structure for a workflow like estate planning, tax season, or loan intake.
- **Embedded file tree per customer record** — List folders and files for a given Drawer to render a live, in-app document browser tied to each of your users' clients.
- **Drag-and-drop uploads with server-side sync** — Push binary files from your UI into the correct SideDrawer folder using the upload endpoint, so documents your users drop into your app land in their vault instantly.
- **Granular folder-level sharing** — Invite external collaborators such as accountants or lawyers to a single folder rather than the entire vault, with the ability to revoke access programmatically.
- **Immutable document sealing on signature** — Automatically seal files after e-signature completion so signed contracts and disclosures become tamper-proof for audit purposes.
- **Activity timeline sync** — Pull SideDrawer timeline events into your product's activity feed or compliance log to show a unified record of every view, download, and edit.

## FAQs

### How does authentication work for SideDrawer through Truto?

Truto handles the OAuth and token exchange with SideDrawer on behalf of your end users. Once a user connects their SideDrawer account, Truto stores and refreshes credentials so your app can call any supported tool without managing auth flows directly.

### Which SideDrawer objects can I read and write?

The integration covers Drawers, Folders, Folder Relations, Files, Collaborators (at drawer, folder, and hanger levels), Timeline events, Templates, Plans, Licenses, and Account Invitations. You can create, list, update, delete, move, copy, seal, and quarantine across these resources.

### Can I upload and download binary file content?

Yes. You can upload files into a specific Drawer or folder and download them either by file name or by a secure token, which is useful for permissioned, time-bound access from your application.

### How do I handle role-based access and external collaborators?

You can create collaborators at the Drawer, Folder, or Hanger level, list active collaborators and pending invitations, transfer ownership, and bulk-delete access. This lets you model granular RBAC — for example, granting a tax professional access to only one folder.

### Is there support for compliance and audit use cases?

Yes. You can pull the full timeline of user interactions for audit reporting, seal files to make them immutable after signing, and quarantine files that need to be restricted, all programmatically.

### How fresh is the data returned from SideDrawer?

All calls made through Truto are proxied in real time to SideDrawer's API, so reads reflect the current state of the vault. Truto does not cache resource data, which is important for regulated document workflows where staleness is unacceptable.
