# Snyk API Integration on Truto



**Category:** Application Development  
**Status:** Generally available

## Unified APIs

### Unified User Directory API

- **Organizations** — Organizations are the top level entity in the source application. Users are associated with an organization.
- **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 Snyk 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 Snyk.** The Proxy API is a 1-to-1 mapping of the Snyk 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 Snyk organization and user data into your platform** — SaaS companies building developer platforms, compliance tools, or security dashboards need to understand who has access to Snyk and how their organizations are structured. Pulling Snyk's user directory lets you map security ownership to teams and services in your product.
- **Automate user provisioning and access audits for Snyk** — IT management and identity governance platforms can offer their customers automated visibility into Snyk user accounts, roles, and organization memberships — enabling access reviews, license optimization, and SOC 2 evidence collection without manual exports.
- **Correlate Snyk roles and org membership with broader identity posture** — Security posture management and GRC platforms can ingest Snyk's user directory alongside data from other dev tools to build a unified view of who has access to what across the software supply chain, flagging over-privileged accounts or orphaned users.
- **Power developer scorecards with team-level Snyk context** — Internal developer portals and engineering intelligence platforms can pull Snyk organization and user data to attribute security activity to the right teams, enabling per-team security scorecards and accountability dashboards.

## What you can build

- **Snyk user directory sync** — Continuously import Snyk users, their roles, and organization memberships into your platform so customers always have an up-to-date view of who has access.
- **Cross-tool access review dashboard** — Display Snyk user roles alongside roles from other connected dev tools so IT and security teams can audit access in one place.
- **Org-level team mapping** — Map Snyk organizations to teams or business units in your product, enabling team-scoped reporting and ownership attribution.
- **Automated offboarding detection** — Flag Snyk accounts that still exist for users who have been deactivated in the company's identity provider, helping customers close access gaps.
- **License and seat utilization reports** — Surface how many Snyk seats are actively used versus allocated, giving customers data to optimize their Snyk spend.

## FAQs

### What Snyk data can I access through Truto today?

Truto supports Snyk through the Unified User Directory API, which covers Organizations, Roles, and Users. Additional Snyk-specific tools (e.g., for projects, issues, or SBOMs) are not yet available but can be built on request.

### How does authentication work for the Snyk integration?

Snyk's API typically uses API tokens (personal or service account tokens) for authentication. Truto handles the auth flow so your end users can connect their Snyk accounts without you managing token storage or refresh logic directly.

### Can I request Snyk-specific endpoints beyond the Unified User Directory API?

Yes. Truto builds tools on request. If you need access to Snyk projects, issues, SBOMs, or other endpoints, you can request them and Truto will build and expose them for your use case.

### Does Truto handle Snyk's API versioning and pagination?

Yes. Snyk uses date-based API versioning and paginated responses. Truto abstracts both so you get a consistent interface without needing to track Snyk's version lifecycle or implement cursor-based pagination yourself.

### What does the Unified User Directory API return for Snyk?

It returns normalized objects for Users, Organizations, and Roles from Snyk, mapped to Truto's unified schema. This lets you query Snyk's user directory using the same API shape you'd use for any other integrated application.

### Are there rate limit considerations when pulling data from Snyk?

Snyk's API enforces rate limits that vary by plan and endpoint. Truto manages request throttling and retries on your behalf so your integration stays within Snyk's limits without requiring custom backoff logic.
