Makini is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and undergoes penetration testing twice annually. We use industry-standard encryption protocols including TLS 1.2+ for data in transit and AES-256 for data at rest. Customer credentials are encrypted using secure key management practices. Our infrastructure follows security best practices including network segmentation, access controls, and regular security audits. For highly regulated industries or customers with strict compliance requirements, we offer self-hosted deployment options that keep all data within your infrastructure. We've successfully met security requirements for enterprises including financial institutions and government contractors.
Makini uses cursor-based pagination for retrieving large datasets. API responses include a `next_cursor` field when additional results are available. To retrieve the next page, include the cursor value in your next request: `GET /api/v1/purchase-orders?cursor=CURSOR_VALUE`. Cursor-based pagination is more reliable than offset-based pagination because it handles data changes between requests—if records are added or deleted while you're paginating, you won't miss records or see duplicates. Page size is configurable up to a maximum limit (typically 100-500 records per page depending on entity type). For optimal performance, use the largest page size your application can handle efficiently. The API response also includes total count when available from the source system.
Customers connect systems through Makini's authentication module, which provides a simple, guided connection flow. The process typically takes 2-5 minutes: Select the system from our list of 2,000+ products. Enter connection details (usually just the instance URL and credentials). Authorize the connection. Makini validates credentials and establishes the connection. The connection flow is designed for non-technical users and can be embedded directly in your application, allowing customers to connect without leaving your product. For systems requiring additional setup (like API token generation), we provide step-by-step guidance within the connection flow. Customers see real-time feedback during connection, and if any issues occur, clear error messages guide them to resolution.
When a system becomes unavailable, Makini detects the connectivity failure and marks the connection status accordingly. Scheduled syncs will fail with connectivity errors. API requests to the connection will return error responses indicating the system is unreachable. Makini continues attempting scheduled syncs using exponential backoff—initial retries happen frequently, then progressively less often to avoid overwhelming the system when it comes back online. Webhooks notify you of the connection status change. When the system comes back online, normal operations resume automatically. For temporary outages, no action is required. For extended outages, you may want to notify the customer. Connection credits remain consumed during outages since the connection configuration persists.
