# Travis CI API Integration on Truto



**Category:** CI/CD  
**Status:** Generally available

## Unified APIs

### Unified CI/CD API

- **Branches** — The branch represent a branch in the CI/CD.
- **Builds** — The build represent a build in the CI/CD.
- **Caches** — The cache represent a cache in the CI/CD.
- **Jobs** — The job represent a job in the CI/CD.
- **Repos** — The repo represent a repository in the CI/CD.

### Unified User Directory API

- **Users** — The User object represents a User.

## How it works

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

- **Calculate DORA metrics from Travis CI pipelines** — Engineering analytics platforms need to ingest build and job data from their customers' Travis CI accounts to compute deployment frequency, lead time, and change failure rate. Truto's Unified CI/CD API provides normalized access to Builds, Jobs, Repos, and Branches so you don't have to wrangle Travis CI's API quirks yourself.
- **Correlate deployments with production incidents** — Incident management tools can query Travis CI for recent builds on production branches the moment an alert fires, surfacing the commit SHA, build author, and build status directly in the incident timeline. This dramatically reduces mean time to identify the root cause.
- **Surface CI/CD status in an internal developer portal** — Developer portal and service catalog products need to show real-time build health per repository so engineering teams have a single pane of glass. Pulling Repos, Branches, and Builds from Travis CI through Truto lets you display this without building bespoke API plumbing.
- **Power test analytics with job-level CI data** — QA and test intelligence platforms need granular job data — including duration, status, and matrix dimensions — to detect flaky tests and track suite performance over time. Truto normalizes Travis CI's Build and Job models so your product can ingest this data alongside other CI providers.
- **Map CI users to your product's identity graph** — SaaS products that attribute engineering activity to individuals need to resolve Travis CI users to internal profiles. Truto's Unified User Directory API lets you fetch Travis CI user records and match them to your own user model without custom auth or pagination logic.

## What you can build

- **Cross-provider CI/CD build dashboard** — Ship a unified dashboard that displays build status, duration, and failure trends from Travis CI alongside other CI providers using Truto's Unified CI/CD API for Builds, Jobs, and Repos.
- **Automated deployment frequency tracker** — Compute and chart deployment frequency per repository by fetching Builds on the main or production Branch from Travis CI on a recurring schedule.
- **Incident-to-deploy correlation widget** — When an incident is declared, automatically pull the last successful and most recent Builds for the affected Repo and Branch so responders can see exactly what shipped.
- **Build failure alerting by team or user** — Combine Travis CI Job failure data with User Directory lookups to notify the right developer or team lead whenever a build breaks on a watched Branch.
- **Repository onboarding and discovery flow** — Let your end users connect their Travis CI account and instantly browse their Repos and active Branches so they can map CI projects to entities in your product without manual configuration.
- **Cache health monitoring panel** — Surface Travis CI cache metadata per Repo so DevOps teams can identify stale or bloated caches that may be slowing down builds or causing intermittent failures.

## FAQs

### How do end users authenticate their Travis CI accounts through Truto?

Travis CI's API v3 uses token-based authentication. End users provide an API token generated from their Travis CI account settings. Truto securely stores and manages these credentials so your application never handles raw tokens directly.

### What data models does Truto's Unified CI/CD API cover for Travis CI?

The Unified CI/CD API exposes Branches, Builds, Caches, Jobs, and Repos. The Unified User Directory API exposes Users. These models are normalized across CI/CD providers so you write one integration that works for Travis CI and others.

### Are there specific tools or pre-built actions available for Travis CI today?

Travis CI tools are built on request. Once you signal demand, Truto's team builds and ships the specific tools you need — such as triggering builds or fetching job logs — tailored to your use case.

### How does Truto handle Travis CI API rate limits and pagination?

Truto abstracts away pagination and rate-limit handling for Travis CI's API v3. Your application receives complete, paginated result sets through a consistent interface without needing to implement offset tracking or retry logic.

### Can I fetch historical build data or only recent builds?

Travis CI's API provides access to historical Builds and Jobs for a given Repo or Branch. Through Truto, you can page through this historical data to backfill metrics like deployment frequency or change failure rate.

### Does Truto support both travis-ci.com and travis-ci.org?

Travis CI has migrated all accounts to travis-ci.com. Truto targets the current travis-ci.com API v3 endpoint. If your customers have legacy org accounts, reach out to Truto's team to discuss compatibility.
