Halo Connect
Halo Connect is an Australian healthcare interoperability platform, founded in 2021 and headquartered in Brisbane, Queensland, that makes primary-care data integration simple by exposing on-premise practice management system (PMS) databases through a modern cloud API. Its Halo Link agent and Halo Cloud service let approved software integrators query systems such as Best Practice, Zedmed, and Dental4Windows using either SQL passthrough or a standards-based FHIR R4 (4.0.1) API built toward the AU Base 4.1.0 implementation guide, without maintaining a separate database agent per integration. Halo Connect built the first FHIR API for the Best Practice Premier medical-practice industry. The platform runs on Microsoft Azure hosted in Australia, and access is gated behind a Halo Cloud subscription using Azure API Management subscription keys and, for desktop applications, bearer JWT tokens issued from a token endpoint; there is no self-serve public API.
Solid contracts, transparent operations, and an easy start — typically complete on four or five facets with one clear soft spot.
API Evangelist profiles Halo Connect the way a machine reads it — 13 machine-readable artifacts across 2 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Halo Connect scores 57.0/100 (strong), with a separate agent-readiness read of 29/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance. Every facet and dimension name is a link: it opens that measurement's page on APIs.io, where the rating runs across the whole catalog — the exact checks that feed it, how every profiled provider distributes on it, and who is at the top of it.
Put this on your own site. The badge is drawn live from Halo Connect's current Kin Score — paste it once and it updates itself every time the score is recomputed. It follows your visitor's light or dark setting, and it links back here so anyone who sees it can read the full breakdown.

How we profile Halo Connect
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Halo Connect. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 5
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.
Halo Connect FHIR API
Query practice data using FHIR resources.
Halo Connect Registered Queries API
The Registered Queries API from Halo Connect — 6 operation(s) for registered queries.
Halo Connect Sites API
Endpoints for practice onboarding and site metadata.
Halo Connect SQL Passthrough API
Send SQL queries to practices as immediate, async or registered queries. **Immediate queries** are small, time-sensitive queries that return a result in seconds. Response size i...
Halo Connect Tokens API
Obtain authorization tokens for desktop applications to authenticate API requests.
Open Collections 2
Open, tool-agnostic collections carry the same runnable value as Postman without locking you to one client — the portable, forkable form of the same exercise.
Open, tool-agnostic API collections (OpenAPI-derived and Bruno).
Halo Cloud API for Desktop Applications
OPEN COLLECTIONHalo Cloud API for Integrators
OPEN COLLECTIONEvent Specifications 1
Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.
AsyncAPI definitions for this provider's event-driven and streaming APIs.
Halo Connect Webhooks
Halo Cloud delivers HTTPS POST webhook notifications when an async or a registered query completes. The payload does NOT include the query result; the integrator retrieves resul...
ASYNCAPISecurity Posture 4
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals.
Halo Connect Trust Center
CyberCert SMB1001-2023 Level 3 (Gold), ISO 27001 (policies/procedures align to principles; not stated as certified)
SECURITYAgentic Access 1
An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
Recommended x-agentic-access execution contracts for AI agents.

This is an independent, third-party profile of Halo Connect, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.
The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.
Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
