- What BigID integration options are available
- When would you use a BigID integration option
- Where to go to get educational materials on each option
With the BigID data intelligence platform, you can bring our data intelligence anywhere. Each of our three integration options is designed for a different use case.
BigID API[edit]
The BigID API allows you to do anything you can do through the BigID UI programmatically. That could be adding data sources, running DSAR requests from an external privacy portal, or even extracting insights to a data science tool like Tableau or R Studio.
The most common use case for the BigID API is to automate repetitive tasks, like loading data sources.
- Documentation for the BigID API is available on the BigID Docs site at https://www.docs.bigid.com/bigid/reference/api-getting-started.

BigID Apps[edit]
BigID Applications allow you to add your own business logic and UI to a BigID system. This means that you can add dashboards, synchronize BigID with an external system, or even add entire data governance applications.
BigID Applications are written in your programming language of choice. You also can use our partner Retool to create low-code BigID apps.
There are two different types of BigID Apps: Utility and Interactive.
Utility Applications[edit]
Utility Applications allow you to run custom code at regular intervals or on-demand. This custom code will be given a BigID API Token so it can access data from your BigID system.
Interactive Applications[edit]
Interactive Applications allow you to add additional screens to the BigID user interface. These applications get their authentication information using the BigID UI SDK.
