Why integrate with Zscaler ZIA
Common scenarios for SaaS companies building Zscaler ZIA integrations for their customers.
Automate user provisioning into Zscaler ZIA security policies
IAM and HR platforms can automatically create, update, and deactivate users in Zscaler ZIA as part of employee lifecycle workflows, ensuring web security policies are applied from day one and revoked instantly on offboarding.
Sync group memberships to enforce role-based web access
SaaS platforms managing organizational structure can push group assignments into ZIA so that department-specific security policies — like DLP rules for Finance or URL restrictions for contractors — are applied dynamically without manual admin work.
Centralize user directory across security tools
Security operations platforms can read users and groups from ZIA alongside other security products to build a unified view of who has access to what, detect orphaned accounts, and ensure consistent identity hygiene across the security stack.
Trigger policy changes based on directory events
Workflow automation platforms can detect when a user moves between groups or departments and use that signal to adjust their Zscaler ZIA security posture, such as tightening web filtering when someone transitions to a role handling sensitive data.
What You Can Build
Ship these features with Truto + Zscaler ZIA
Concrete product features your team can ship faster by leveraging Truto’s Zscaler ZIA integration instead of building from scratch.
Automated ZIA user provisioning on employee onboarding
Automatically create a user in Zscaler ZIA with the correct group assignment when a new hire is added to your platform's directory.
Real-time group membership sync
Keep ZIA security groups in sync with your platform's organizational structure so policy assignments stay current without manual intervention.
Instant user deprovisioning on offboarding
Deactivate or remove a user from Zscaler ZIA the moment they are terminated in your HR or identity platform, closing security gaps in seconds.
Cross-product identity audit dashboard
Pull users and groups from ZIA alongside other integrated tools to surface orphaned accounts, mismatched group memberships, and compliance gaps in a single view.
Bulk directory migration tool
Enable customers to import their existing ZIA user and group structure into your platform during initial setup, reducing onboarding time from days to minutes.

Use Truto’s frontend SDK to connect your customer’s Zscaler ZIA account. We handle all OAuth and API key flows — you don’t need to create the OAuth app.
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.
Call our API, we call Zscaler ZIA
Truto’s Proxy API is a 1-to-1 mapping of the Zscaler ZIA API. You call us, we call Zscaler ZIA, and pass the response back in the same cycle.
Unified response format
Every response follows a single format across all integrations. We translate Zscaler ZIA’s pagination into unified cursor-based pagination. Data is always in the result attribute.
FAQs
Common questions about Zscaler ZIA on Truto
Authentication, rate limits, data freshness, and everything else you need to know before you integrate.
How does authentication work with Zscaler ZIA?
ZIA uses a proprietary session-based authentication mechanism. An API key is combined with a Unix timestamp to generate credentials, which are exchanged for a JSESSIONID session cookie. Truto handles this auth flow for you, so your application and your end users don't need to manage session lifecycle or key obfuscation.
Which Zscaler ZIA resources are supported through Truto's Unified APIs?
Truto's Unified User Directory API maps to ZIA's users and groups endpoints, letting you list, create, update, and manage users and their group assignments through a standardized interface. Additional ZIA-specific tools (e.g., URL categories, DLP dictionaries, sandbox reports) can be built on request.
Can I access ZIA-specific endpoints not covered by the Unified User Directory API?
Yes. Truto supports building custom tools on request. If you need access to ZIA endpoints like URL filtering categories, DLP dictionaries, or sandbox reports, Truto can add those as dedicated tools for your integration.
Are there rate limits on the Zscaler ZIA API?
Yes, Zscaler enforces rate limits on their API that vary by endpoint and tenant configuration. Truto manages pagination and request throttling so your integration handles these limits gracefully without requiring custom retry logic.
How do end users connect their Zscaler ZIA account through Truto?
End users provide their ZIA API key and admin credentials through Truto's embedded linking flow. Truto securely stores these credentials, manages session creation and renewal, and exposes a consistent API for your application to interact with their ZIA tenant.
Does Truto handle the differences between ZIA cloud instances?
Zscaler operates multiple cloud instances (e.g., zscaler.net, zscalerone.net, zscloud.net) with different base URLs. Truto accounts for this so your integration works regardless of which Zscaler cloud your end user's organization is hosted on.
