API Information

The Base URL used for the Lattice connector is https://api.latticehq.com/v1/. More information can be found on their main API documentation (v1.0) site.

Authentication

Copy

Within the builder, click on the Lattice connector to display the connector properties panel. Select the 'Auth' tab and click the 'New authentication' button.

In the Tray.io authentication pop-up modal, name the authentication in a way that will quickly identify it within a potentially large list. For example, whether it is a Sandbox or Production auth, etc.

Consider who/ how many people will need access to this authentication when choosing where to create this authentication ('Personal' or 'Organisational').

The second page asks you for your 'API Key'.

To get these fields, head to the Lattice dashboard. Click on the 'Admin' icon from left bottom corner. Select 'Settings' > 'API Keys'.

On the API Keys page yo can generate the API key suing the 'Generate API Key' button.

Once you have added these fields to your Tray.io authentication pop-up window, click the 'Create authentication' button. 

Your connector authentication setup should now be complete.

Using the Raw HTTP Request ('Universal Operation')

Copy

As of version 1.1, you can effectively create your own operations.

This is a powerful feature that you can use when there is an endpoint in Lattice that is not used by any of our operations.

To use this, you will first of all need to research the endpoint in the Lattice API documentation v1.0 to find the exact format that Lattice will be expecting the endpoint to be passed in.

For example, say that the List custom attributes operation did not exist in our Lattice connector, and you wanted to use this endpoint. You would use the

Lattice API docs to find the relevant endpoint - which in this case is a GET request called: https://api.latticehq.com/v1/user/{id}/customAttributes.

More details about this endpoint can be found here.

Based on the information provided in the above API call doc, you need to configure the following attributes on your Tray platform:

• Method: GET

• URL:

  • Full URL: https://api.latticehq.com/v1/user/{id}/customAttributes

• Headers: Accept: application/json

• Body Type: none

Once the API call is executed successfully, you should get the following results:

Example Usage

Copy

This workflow uses a scheduled trigger, which fires the workflow every two weeks.

Here, the Lattice connector fetches a list of people directly reporting a particular user and sends a reminder to them using the Slack connector to write their bi-weekly update on Lattice.

The overall logic of the workflow is:

• The workflow is triggered by a scheduled trigger that runs every two weeks.

• Lattice lists people directly reporting the selected user.

• Loops through the received list of reportees.

• Slack gets the User ID of the reportees by Email.

• In the end, a reminder message is sent to the reportees to write their bi-weekly update.

The completed workflow and results look like this:
