Description
Currently, if certifications are missing at the time of seeding, entire ToolTypes and ToolTypeCertifications for restricted checkouts are not automatically created, and must later be manually backfilled:

For the future, avoid the scenario where delays in receiving or manually importing EH&S certification lists result in these gaps by instead using Grouper as a live system-of-record to directly check required certifications.
@timparenti is already in touch with ECE ITS, which has partnered with EH&S to sync certain EH&S certification lists from BioRAFT into Grouper, and can request the syncing of any groups that may be needed. List course names and/or node IDs from the BioRAFT course directory.
@merichar can request the appropriate Andrew service account from Identity Services which would be used to speak to Grouper Web Services, and @timparenti can ensure it gets the proper read permissions.
