Users are associated with an organization. - **Users** — The User object represents a User. - **Workspaces** — Workspaces represent concepts like teams, workspaces, projects in apps that support them ## How it works 1. **Link your customer's Zoho BugTracker 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 Zoho BugTracker.** The Proxy API is a 1-to-1 mapping of the Zoho BugTracker 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 developer onboarding and offboarding across bug tracking tools** — IAM and HR SaaS platforms can use the Unified User Directory API to provision new engineers into the correct Zoho BugTracker portals and projects on day one, and revoke access instantly upon offboarding — ensuring license compliance and zero lingering access. - **Sync customer-reported issues into engineering workflows** — Helpdesk and customer support SaaS products can push escalated tickets directly into Zoho BugTracker as bugs, keeping support agents and developers in sync without requiring either team to leave their primary tool. - **Close the feedback loop between product roadmaps and bug resolution** — Product roadmapping tools can create bugs in Zoho BugTracker when feature requests are approved, then listen for status changes via webhooks to automatically update public changelogs when issues ship. - **Aggregate developer workload data for capacity planning** — Engineering analytics platforms can pull project, bug, and time log data from Zoho BugTracker to surface sprint velocity, developer utilization, and burnout risk — giving managers actionable insights without manual reporting. - **Auto-triage production errors into bug tracking** — Observability and error monitoring SaaS products can automatically create bugs in Zoho BugTracker when application exceptions cross a threshold, attaching stack traces and assigning to the on-call engineer. ## What you can build - **Automated user provisioning and deprovisioning** — Add or remove users from specific Zoho BugTracker portals and projects as part of your platform's identity lifecycle management, using the Unified User Directory API for organizations, users, and workspaces. - **Two-way bug status sync** — Keep your product's internal ticket states in sync with Zoho BugTracker bug statuses by leveraging webhook events and the Bugs API to push and pull lifecycle transitions in real time. - **Cross-tool project and workspace mapping** — Map your platform's internal workspace concept to Zoho BugTracker projects and portals, enabling end users to configure exactly where bugs and issues should land. - **Billable time extraction for invoicing** — Pull time logs recorded against bugs in Zoho BugTracker into your billing or ERP platform to automate client invoicing and contractor payroll calculations. - **Contextual bug enrichment with comments and attachments** — Append screenshots, error logs, environment details, and threaded comments to Zoho BugTracker bugs directly from your product's UI, giving developers full context without switching tools. - **Role-aware access audit dashboard** — Surface a unified view of which users have access to which Zoho BugTracker portals and projects, along with their roles, to support compliance audits and access reviews. ## FAQs ### What authentication method does Zoho BugTracker use? Zoho BugTracker uses OAuth 2.0 for API authentication. Truto handles the full OAuth flow — including token refresh — so your end users simply authorize the connection once and you never manage credentials directly. ### Which Truto Unified APIs are available for Zoho BugTracker? Zoho BugTracker currently maps to the Unified User Directory API, which covers Organizations (Portals), Users (Portal and Project Users), and Workspaces (Projects). Additional tools and Unified API coverage, such as Ticketing-specific resources, are built on request. ### Does Zoho BugTracker support webhooks for real-time data? Yes. Zoho BugTracker supports webhook events for bug creation and status updates, allowing your integration to react to changes in real time instead of relying solely on polling. ### Can I access custom fields on Zoho BugTracker bugs? Zoho BugTracker's API exposes custom fields such as custom severity levels and status values on bugs. When Truto builds out ticketing tools for this integration, custom field support can be included based on your requirements. ### How does Zoho BugTracker's data hierarchy map to Truto's Unified User Directory API? Portals map to Organizations (the top-level tenant boundary), Projects map to Workspaces (where bugs live), and Portal/Project Users map to Users with their associated roles and project-specific access rights. ### What if I need Ticketing API operations like creating bugs or reading time logs? Zoho BugTracker's REST API supports full CRUD on bugs, comments, attachments, and time logs. These tools are not yet pre-built in Truto but are available on request — Truto builds and ships new tools quickly based on customer needs.
