Makini supports over 2,000 industrial systems across ERP, CMMS, and WMS categories. This includes major platforms like SAP (ECC, S4/HANA, Business One), Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, IBM Maximo, and specialized industrial systems. We support both cloud-based and on-premises installations. If you need to connect to a system we don't currently support, we're committed to building that integration for you at no additional charge—most new integrations are completed within one business day. You can view our full list of supported systems at makini.io/integrations.
When customers change their system credentials, the existing Makini connection will lose access and workflows will begin failing with authentication errors. Makini provides webhook notifications when connections require reauthorization, allowing you to proactively notify customers. Customers can reconnect by logging into the system through Makini's authentication flow again, which issues a new API token. The reconnection process takes only a few minutes. Best practice is to implement connection health monitoring and automated alerts when connections require attention, so you can address issues before they impact operations.
Authentication errors (401 status code) typically occur for a few reasons: the API token is invalid or expired, the underlying system credentials have changed, the system requires reauthorization, or the token lacks necessary permissions. First, verify you're including the token correctly in the Authorization header. Check the connection status in the Makini dashboard—if it shows as requiring reauthorization, the customer needs to reconnect. If credentials were recently changed in the source system, you'll need to reconnect to obtain a new token. For persistent issues, check if the system account has sufficient permissions to perform the requested operation. If the problem continues, contact support with the request ID for investigation.
Connection-specific errors often relate to system configuration, permissions, or connectivity issues. Common scenarios include: the system is offline or unreachable, credentials have expired, API rate limits on the source system, or permission changes in the source system. Use the connection status endpoint to check connection health before making API calls. Implement circuit breaker patterns—if a connection repeatedly fails, temporarily stop making requests to avoid cascading failures. Log connection-specific errors separately to identify problematic connections. When errors occur, check if the issue affects all operations or specific entity types, which helps narrow down permission or configuration issues. For on-premises systems, verify network connectivity and firewall rules. Contact support if connection errors persist, providing the connection ID and affected operations.
