# Let's Build a Secure App: Clarity's Analytic and Operational APIs

##### About this session

Thursday, September 19  |  10am - 12:15pm  |  George Room

This session is an introduction to Clarity’s available API tools. Using low-code tools, we'll show how to enforce HMIS data governance in community apps, using Clarity APIs and user access controls. To demonstrate, we'll build an app for a fictitious public health department, which is limited by Clarity HS to only show data for clients that have a HIPAA release in effect for this purpose.
