Seismic Integration Guide
Integrate Seismic with enterprise systems through REST APIs, OAuth 2.0, content operations, and selected webhook-style notifications.
Seismic integration options at a glance
Seismic primarily integrates through REST APIs secured with OAuth 2.0. These APIs can support content search and metadata retrieval, user and group administration, learning and enablement data, and content upload or download where tenant permissions allow. Seismic also provides webhook-style or event-notification capabilities for selected scenarios, although event coverage must be verified for each API product and tenant. Some operations may offer bulk or asynchronous behavior, and content endpoints may use multipart transfers or temporary URLs. Martini can call these APIs from workflows, receive selected notifications through an API, transform Seismic JSON, schedule reconciliation jobs, and expose normalized APIs to downstream applications.
| Integration point | Supported by Seismic? | Common use cases | How Martini supports it |
|---|---|---|---|
| REST APIs | Yes | Query and search content, retrieve metadata, manage users and groups, and access learning or enablement data. Upload and download operations depend on the enabled Seismic API and permissions. | Martini can consume Seismic REST APIs from workflows, map JSON payloads, apply business rules, and expose normalized APIs for other applications. |
| Webhooks / outbound callbacks | Limited | Selected Seismic scenarios can produce webhook-style or event notifications. Coverage, authentication, delivery behavior, and event types must be verified per API. | Martini can expose a receiving API or use a workflow trigger to validate, deduplicate, acknowledge, and process notifications before retrieving authoritative Seismic data. |
| Bulk / async / batch APIs | Limited | Selected content-management or data-processing operations may support bulk or asynchronous behavior; this is not general across all endpoints. | Martini can orchestrate asynchronous calls, persist checkpoints, poll where required, and route incomplete or failed jobs for review. |
| File / content transfer | Yes | Content APIs support managed assets and metadata, with endpoint-specific upload, download, multipart, or temporary URL patterns. | Martini can coordinate transfers, map metadata, handle temporary URL expiry, and apply file size, content-type, retention, and licensing rules. |
| Authentication | Yes | Seismic API access uses OAuth 2.0 with application permissions or scopes, bearer tokens, tenant-specific endpoints, and possible administrative approval. | Martini stores client credentials, tokens, tenant URLs, and related configuration in environment-specific secrets and handles token expiration or reauthentication. |
| GraphQL APIs | Not confirmed | No official Seismic GraphQL API was confirmed in the supplied research. | Martini can consume GraphQL when a documented endpoint exists, but Seismic integrations should use the confirmed REST APIs instead. |
| SOAP APIs | No | No current Seismic SOAP API was confirmed. | Martini can consume SOAP services generally, but a Seismic SOAP integration should not be assumed. |
| Database / analytics access | Not confirmed | No direct customer-database or SQL access was confirmed; analytics and activity data should come through documented APIs or supported exports. | Martini can load API results into approved databases or warehouses without connecting to Seismic's underlying database. |
How Seismic exposes data and business events
Seismic REST APIs
Seismic provides REST APIs for platform, content, user, group, learning, and enablement operations. Exact resources and fields depend on the Seismic products and permissions enabled for the tenant.
Martini implementation pattern
Martini implementation pattern: a workflow obtains an OAuth 2.0 access token, calls the appropriate Seismic endpoint, validates and maps the JSON response, applies business rules, and writes the result to a target system or returns it through a Martini API.
Implementation sequence
Seismic webhook notifications
Seismic supports webhook-style or event-notification capabilities for selected scenarios. Event coverage, subscription scope, authentication, signing, retry behavior, and duplicate delivery must be verified for the relevant API.
Martini implementation pattern
Martini implementation pattern: a Martini API or workflow trigger receives the notification, validates its authenticity and structure, deduplicates the event, and retrieves the authoritative Seismic object before updating downstream systems.
Implementation sequence
Seismic content transfer
Seismic content APIs support managed assets and metadata. Depending on the endpoint, transfers may use upload, download, multipart, or temporary URL patterns, with endpoint-specific size and content rules.
Martini implementation pattern
Martini implementation pattern: a workflow requests or receives the content transfer details, validates file metadata and permissions, moves the asset within its retention policy, and stores only the identifiers and metadata needed by downstream systems.
Implementation sequence
Seismic scheduled synchronization
Scheduled synchronization is appropriate when event coverage is incomplete or when learning, content, user, group, or reporting data must be reconciled periodically.
Martini implementation pattern
Martini implementation pattern: a scheduler starts a workflow that uses documented timestamps, cursors, tokens, or pagination to retrieve changes, applies overlap and checkpoint rules, and periodically performs a broader reconciliation.
Implementation sequence
Common Seismic integration patterns
Pattern 1: Enrich CRM opportunities with Seismic content
When to use this pattern
Use this pattern when sales users need approved Seismic content or Playbooks associated with Salesforce or Microsoft Dynamics 365 opportunities and accounts. The workflow can return links or metadata without duplicating the content repository.
Integration direction
Example Mapping
| Seismic Field | Canonical Field | Target Field |
|---|---|---|
| opportunityId | salesOpportunityId | Opportunity.Id |
| accountId | customerAccountId | Account.Id |
| contentId | enablementContentId | SeismicContentReference |
| playbookId | recommendedPlaybookId | EnablementPlaybookReference |
Martini implementation pattern
Martini receives opportunity context, queries Seismic for relevant Content or Playbooks, filters results using account, stage, or permission rules, and writes approved links or metadata back to the CRM. Validation failures and transient API errors use separate retry and exception paths, while the CRM update is idempotent.
Martini capabilities used
- workflows
- API consumption
- data mapping
- business rules
- error handling
Pattern 2: Synchronize Seismic content metadata
When to use this pattern
Use this pattern when a corporate catalog, portal, or analytics store needs a searchable representation of Seismic content without becoming the system of record for the assets.
Integration direction
Example Mapping
| Seismic Field | Canonical Field | Target Field |
|---|---|---|
| id | sourceContentId | content_id |
| title | contentTitle | title |
| locationId | sourceLocationId | folder_id |
| version | contentVersion | version |
Martini implementation pattern
A scheduled Martini workflow or supported notification flow retrieves changed Content and location metadata, applies an overlap window or event checkpoint, and performs idempotent database upserts. Deleted or inaccessible objects are handled through reconciliation rules, and rate limits are managed with bounded backoff.
Martini capabilities used
- scheduled workflows
- API consumption
- data mapping
- database integration
- checkpointing
- error handling
Pattern 3: Provision Seismic users and groups
When to use this pattern
Use this pattern when identity or workforce changes must be coordinated with Seismic user and group administration. The available provisioning operations must be confirmed for the tenant and application permissions.
Integration direction
Example Mapping
| Seismic Field | Canonical Field | Target Field |
|---|---|---|
| userPrincipalName | userEmail | Seismic user identifier |
| displayName | userDisplayName | Seismic profile name |
| groupId | sourceGroupId | Seismic group identifier |
| accountEnabled | userStatus | Seismic user status |
Martini implementation pattern
Martini receives approved identity changes, maps attributes and group membership, validates required administrative permissions, and invokes the applicable Seismic user or group APIs. Each operation carries a durable source key so retries do not create duplicate changes; authorization failures are separated from transient failures.
Martini capabilities used
- workflows
- API consumption
- data mapping
- business rules
- secure configuration
- error handling
Pattern 4: Load Seismic learning data into analytics
When to use this pattern
Use this pattern when Learning resources, courses, or related enablement data must be combined with an enterprise warehouse or reporting platform. The relevant Seismic Learning or analytics API, retention period, and incremental fields should be confirmed first.
Integration direction
Example Mapping
| Seismic Field | Canonical Field | Target Field |
|---|---|---|
| courseId | learningResourceId | course_id |
| userId | learnerId | learner_id |
| status | completionStatus | completion_status |
| updatedAt | lastChangedAt | updated_at |
Martini implementation pattern
A scheduled Martini workflow retrieves paginated Seismic learning data, normalizes user and course identifiers, applies reporting filters, and loads the warehouse using checkpoints and idempotent keys. 429 and transient 5xx responses are retried with backoff, while malformed or permission-denied results are routed to an exception workflow.
Martini capabilities used
- scheduler triggers
- API consumption
- pagination orchestration
- data mapping
- database integration
- monitoring and error handling
Applications commonly integrated with Seismic
Seismic can be integrated with sales, collaboration, identity, and workforce applications to connect enablement content and administration processes with enterprise workflows. Exact functionality depends on the Seismic APIs and tenant permissions enabled.
| Application | Scenario | Direction | Martini Pattern |
|---|---|---|---|
| Salesforce | Surface Seismic content and enablement guidance in opportunity and account workflows while returning selected links or activity to Salesforce. | Salesforce → Martini → Seismic → Salesforce | Martini receives Salesforce opportunity or account context, queries Seismic for relevant content or playbooks, applies business rules, and writes approved links or metadata back to Salesforce with bounded retries and idempotent updates. |
| Microsoft Dynamics 365 | Associate Seismic content and playbooks with Dynamics accounts, leads, and opportunities. | Microsoft Dynamics 365 → Martini → Seismic → Microsoft Dynamics 365 | A Martini workflow receives Dynamics context, retrieves matching Seismic content, maps the result to Dynamics fields, and records failures for retry or operational review. |
| Microsoft Teams | Make approved Seismic content or enablement notifications available in collaboration workflows. | Seismic → Martini → Microsoft Teams | Martini retrieves approved Seismic content or notification data, transforms it into the target Teams request model, and routes authorization or delivery failures separately. |
| Microsoft Outlook | Support discovery or sharing of approved Seismic content in email-based sales processes. | Seismic → Martini → Microsoft Outlook | A Martini workflow retrieves Seismic content metadata or links, applies sharing rules, and passes the normalized result to an Outlook integration endpoint where that capability is available. |
| Microsoft Entra ID | Coordinate identity, single sign-on, and potentially user or group lifecycle information with Seismic administration. | Microsoft Entra ID → Martini → Seismic | Martini receives approved identity or group changes, maps identities and memberships to Seismic user and group models, validates administrative permissions, and processes provisioning failures independently from content workflows. |
| Okta | Coordinate workforce identity and potentially user lifecycle synchronization for Seismic. | Okta → Martini → Seismic | Martini consumes authorized Okta changes, applies role and group mapping rules, invokes the applicable Seismic APIs, and records durable synchronization keys for safe retries. |
| Workday | Supply workforce and organizational information for Seismic user and group administration. | Workday → Martini → Seismic | A scheduled Martini workflow retrieves approved Workday changes, transforms workforce attributes into Seismic provisioning requests, and routes records requiring tenant-specific review to an exception path. |
| Slack | Distribute approved enablement resources or notifications to sales and enablement teams. | Seismic → Martini → Slack | Martini retrieves Seismic content or event information, filters it according to distribution rules, and sends normalized notifications to Slack while treating duplicate events as idempotent. |

| Learning resources or courses | Synchronize training and enablement information for reporting, workforce programs, or analytics. | Data warehouses, reporting platforms, Workday, identity and workforce systems | Martini retrieves the applicable Learning data on a schedule, paginates results, normalizes identifiers, and loads an analytical model with checkpoints. |
Authentication and security considerations
OAuth 2.0 and permissions
Seismic API access uses OAuth 2.0 with application permissions or scopes. Access tokens are sent as bearer tokens, and administrative approval may be required for protected data.
Secrets and tenant configuration
Store client identifiers, client secrets, tokens, tenant URLs, and environment-specific endpoints in Martini secrets rather than workflow definitions. Handle token expiration and reauthentication explicitly.
Data protection
- Use the least permissions required for each workflow.
- Do not log tokens or sensitive content.
- Respect Seismic content visibility, licensing, retention, and temporary URL requirements.
- Test with the same authorization model used in production.
Operational considerations for Seismic integrations
Rate limits and pagination
Confirm limits for each Seismic API and implement backoff for 429 and transient 5xx responses. Pagination formats may differ by endpoint, so preserve the documented cursor, token, or page value.
Synchronization reliability
Use stable Seismic identifiers, versions, timestamps, overlap windows, and checkpoints. Treat notifications as potentially duplicated or reordered until the relevant Seismic documentation confirms stronger guarantees.
Content transfers
Validate file size, content type, filename, encoding, retention, and temporary URL expiration. Avoid persisting sensitive or licensed content unnecessarily.
Schema changes and observability
Validate required fields, tolerate unknown fields where safe, and isolate mappings from downstream workflows. Log correlation or request identifiers without exposing credentials, and monitor API-version and deprecation notices.
Why use Martini instead of scripts or point-to-point integrations?
Orchestration instead of isolated scripts
Martini centralizes Seismic API calls, OAuth configuration, event handling, scheduled reconciliation, target writes, and exception paths in maintainable workflows.
Reusable integration assets
Teams can expose normalized Martini APIs for Seismic operations and reuse mappings, validation, business rules, and authentication configuration across applications.
Controlled change and operations
Separating Seismic payload mappings from downstream models helps contain API changes. Checkpoints, idempotent updates, bounded retries, logging, and monitoring provide a stronger operational model than unmanaged point-to-point scripts.
Frequently asked questions
Seismic can be integrated through its REST APIs secured with OAuth 2.0, selected webhook-style or event-notification capabilities, and content transfer operations. Enterprise workflows can retrieve content, metadata, users, groups, Playbooks, or learning data and synchronize normalized results with CRM, identity, collaboration, or analytics systems.
Yes. Martini can integrate with Seismic by consuming its REST APIs, handling OAuth 2.0 authentication, orchestrating content and data workflows, and receiving supported Seismic webhook or event notifications through a Martini API or workflow trigger.
No. A dedicated Seismic connector is not required. Martini can use Seismic's confirmed native integration mechanisms, including REST APIs, OAuth 2.0, selected webhook-style notifications, and content transfer endpoints.
Lonti does not charge an additional per-connector or per-vendor fee to integrate Seismic. The integration is subject to the provisioned capacity of the Martini environment. Separate costs may apply from Seismic, cloud infrastructure, identity providers, or other third-party services based on their subscriptions, usage, and deployment models.
REST APIs are the primary and recommended mechanism. OAuth 2.0 is used for access, while selected webhook-style notifications can support event-driven flows. File and content transfer APIs are available for managed assets, and bulk or asynchronous behavior should be used only where the specific Seismic endpoint documents it.
Martini can expose an API or use a workflow trigger to receive Seismic webhook-style notifications for supported scenarios. Coverage is not assumed for every object or event, so event types, subscription scope, authentication, delivery, retry, and duplicate behavior should be verified for the relevant Seismic API.
Martini can use notifications, documented modification timestamps, cursors, change tokens, or scheduled pagination to retrieve Seismic data. It maps objects such as Content, Users, Groups, Playbooks, and learning resources into target models, uses stable identifiers and checkpoints, and performs idempotent updates with periodic reconciliation.
Martini can distinguish authentication, authorization, validation, rate-limit, missing-object, and transient service errors. Workflows can apply bounded backoff for 429 and transient 5xx responses, store durable synchronization keys, deduplicate notifications, and route permanent failures to an operational exception path.
