How HumDay uses it

1. You describe the outcome. Not this operation by name — what you want to happen. HumDay works out which operations it needs.
2. The contract names it. Before anything is built, you see exactly which NPR Identity operations the program may use, and this is one of them.
3. You approve access. Read-only access is still yours to grant, and still limited to what the contract needs.

Questions

Can HumDay get the latest state information about the logged-in user in NPR Identity?

Yes. This operation is published in NPR Identity's own API description, so HumDay can use it without a hand-built connector — once you have approved it for your automation.

Does this change anything in my NPR Identity account?

No. This is a read-only operation, so it can be used to watch for changes or fetch data without altering anything in NPR Identity.

Do I need to write code?

No. You describe the outcome you want in plain words. HumDay agrees a contract with you, writes the program, and shows you a proof run before anything touches your NPR Identity account.
