Use Cases

Why integrate with 15Five

Common scenarios for SaaS companies building 15Five integrations for their customers.

01

Sync org hierarchy for compensation decisions

Compensation and equity platforms can pull employee profiles, manager relationships, and department groupings from 15Five to display performance context alongside salary data during merit cycles — without requiring HR teams to manually export and re-upload spreadsheets.

02

Feed performance data into people analytics dashboards

People analytics platforms can ingest 15Five's user directory and group structure via Truto's Unified User Directory API to map organizational hierarchies, then layer on engagement and performance signals to surface flight-risk indicators and team health trends.

03

Automate recognition-to-rewards pipelines

Employee rewards platforms can listen for peer recognition events in 15Five and automatically convert them into redeemable points or rewards, creating a seamless loop between day-to-day recognition and tangible incentives.

04

Keep OKR progress updated from external systems

Productivity and work management tools can push real-time metric updates into 15Five objectives so employees see accurate key result progress during weekly check-ins without manual data entry.

05

Trigger learning paths from review feedback

Learning management systems can use 15Five review and feedback data to automatically enroll employees in relevant training modules, closing the loop between performance gaps identified by managers and targeted upskilling.

How It Works

From zero to integrated

Go live with 15Five in under an hour. No boilerplate, no maintenance burden.

01

Link your customer’s 15Five account

Use Truto’s frontend SDK to connect your customer’s 15Five account. We handle all OAuth and API key flows — you don’t need to create the OAuth app.

02

We handle authentication

Don’t spend time refreshing access tokens or figuring out secure storage. We handle it and inject credentials into every API request.

03

Call our API, we call 15Five

Truto’s Proxy API is a 1-to-1 mapping of the 15Five API. You call us, we call 15Five, and pass the response back in the same cycle.

04

Unified response format

Every response follows a single format across all integrations. We translate 15Five’s pagination into unified cursor-based pagination. Data is always in the result attribute.

FAQs

Common questions about 15Five on Truto

Authentication, rate limits, data freshness, and everything else you need to know before you integrate.

Which Truto Unified APIs are available for 15Five today?

15Five is supported through Truto's Unified User Directory API, which covers Users and Groups. This lets you read employee profiles, department/team groupings, and manager-report relationships through a standardized schema.

What if I need access to 15Five data beyond Users and Groups, like OKRs or check-ins?

Additional tools and endpoints for 15Five (such as Objectives, High Fives, Pulse scores, and Review Cycles) are built on request. Contact Truto and the team will scope and deliver the integration based on your specific data needs.

How does authentication work for 15Five integrations through Truto?

Truto handles the full auth flow for your end users connecting their 15Five accounts. 15Five uses API key-based authentication, and Truto manages token storage and credential lifecycle so you don't have to build or maintain auth infrastructure.

Can I reconstruct the full reporting hierarchy from 15Five data?

Yes. The 15Five User object includes a manager_id field, which allows you to reconstruct the complete reporting tree. Combined with Group data for departments and teams, you get a full organizational map.

Does Truto handle pagination and rate limits for the 15Five API?

Yes. Truto abstracts away pagination and respects 15Five's rate limits automatically, so you receive complete result sets without writing retry logic or cursor management code.

How fresh is the data I get through the Unified User Directory API for 15Five?

Data is fetched from 15Five's API in real time when you make a request through Truto. There is no intermediate caching layer that would introduce staleness — you get the current state of Users and Groups as 15Five reports it.
