Platform interfaces

APIStandard

REST-API

Nova is driven end to end by its API: every platform function is available as a JSON endpoint, and the Nova UI itself uses exactly these endpoints. Anything you can do in the interface, you can do from a script or a neighboring system.

Capabilities

What the REST API does

  • The same endpoints

    Manages users, roles, and assignments through the same JSON endpoints the Nova UI uses.

  • Triggering provisioning

    Triggers provisioning and reconciliation runs from scripts or neighboring systems.

  • Job control

    Starts and monitors background jobs such as bulk imports and syncs.

  • System management

    Administers connected target and source systems, including their configuration.

  • Protected write access

    Protects every mutating endpoint with admin permission checks.

Technology and process

Integration and identity lifecycle

Technical integration

HTTP endpoints with JSON payloads; they are the same routes the Nova UI uses. All mutating routes are protected by admin permission checks. Hardening along OWASP ASVS L2 following an internal code assessment (06/2026); external review pending.

In the identity lifecycle

The API automates lifecycle operations: trigger HR imports and joiner, mover, and leaver runs, set assignments, and query the results. Request and recertification data is equally reachable for neighboring systems.
