Partner API without database exposure

Share data, not database credentials

Partners need product availability data. Distributors need pricing. Resellers need inventory. The answer is never "here are the database credentials." dhino Publish gives partners exactly what they need through governed API endpoints.

Why sharing data with partners is risky

Partners need access to your data, but every approach is either too open or too slow. Direct database access exposes everything. Building custom APIs takes months and requires ongoing maintenance. Manual data exports are stale before they arrive.

"Sensitive data accidentally exposed to external parties. IT teams rebuilding external data access for every new requirement."

The risk every time a partner asks for data access

The partner data challenge

You need to share data. You can't afford to share everything.

Without dhino

  • ✕ Custom API built for each partner request
  • ✕ No field-level control over what partners see
  • ✕ No rate limiting or abuse prevention
  • ✕ No audit trail of what partners accessed

With dhino Publish

  • ✓ Templates define partner-specific data views
  • ✓ Field-level controls hide sensitive data
  • ✓ Rate limiting and access policies built in
  • ✓ Every request logged for compliance

How it works

Governed API endpoints for partners, without building custom integrations.

1

Define partner data views

Templates determine exactly which fields each partner can see. Product availability without cost data. Inventory levels without supplier details. You decide.

2

Expose governed endpoints

dhino creates API endpoints with rate limiting, access policies, and caching built in. Partners call the API. Your database stays protected.

3

Monitor and audit

Every partner request is logged. See who accessed what data, when, and how often. Meet compliance requirements without building custom logging.

What changes for your partner ecosystem

Partners get data, not database access

Field-level access controls mean partners see exactly what you intend. Cost data, supplier details, and internal notes stay hidden. No more all-or-nothing choices.

New partners onboarded in days

Templates are reusable. When a new partner needs access, you apply an existing template with appropriate permissions. No custom API development per partner.

Compliance built into every request

Audit trails, rate limiting, and access policies are automatic. When compliance asks who accessed what, the answer is already recorded.

Partner APIs are one of several ways teams use dhino Publish. See all Publish capabilities
